Abstract

Example communication methods and example apparatuses are provided. One example method includes obtaining, by an adaptor client, a southbound interface protocol type, where the adaptor client manages two or more protocol adaptors. The adaptor client can then select a first protocol adaptor from the two or more protocol adaptors based on the southbound interface protocol type, where the first protocol adaptor implements a first protocol.
