If the caller sends

    ZMO,SLK

and the remote (receiver) wants SLK, it'll select SLK.

If the caller sends

SLK,ZMO

and the remote (receiver) wants ZMO, it'll select ZMO.

How is it caller-driven? The receiving system will pick the protocol it
prefers, from the list presented by the calling system.
