# Class type Nethttp_client.transport_channel_type

    class type transport_channel_type = object .. end

    method identify_conn_by_name : bool

Whether connections must be identified by name, and not by IP address. (Set for TLS connections.)

    method setup_e : Unix.file_descr ->
           transport_layer_id ->
           float ->
           exn ->
           string ->
           int ->
           Unixqueue.event_system ->
           tls_cache -> Uq_engines.multiplex_controller Uq_engines.engine

`setup fd trans tmo tmo_x host port esys tls_cache`: Create or configure a communication circuit over the file descriptor `fd` that can be driven by the returned multiplex controller object. Since OCamlnet-3.8, the method can also return private data for the connection cache.

`tmo` is the timeout. After inactivity the exception `tmo_x` must be raised.

`host` is the name of the machine to connect to. `port` is the port number. The descriptor `fd` is already connected to this port, directly or via a proxy.

    method continue : Unix.file_descr ->
           transport_layer_id ->
           float ->
           exn ->
           string ->
           int ->
           Unixqueue.event_system -> exn option -> Uq_engines.multiplex_controller

`continue` is called when an already established circuit needs to be continued. The additional argument contains the stashed TLS session.

Note that the event system can be different now.

If it is not possible to continue, the method may raise `Not_found`.

    method default_port : int option

If set, the `Host` header omits this port number
