Field Summary
static DeviceEndpointType LOGICAL
          Denotes a logical device.

          Compare this objects for equality.
 

Field Detail

PHYSICAL

static final DeviceEndpointType PHYSICAL
Denotes a physical existing device.

Typically this a station on the desk or a mobile phone. But also soft-phones (software on PC which allows to communicate by using a head set and microphone) are considered being a physical device.
