The <parameter>domain</parameter> parameter specifies the protocol
family to be used by the socket. See <function>socket_create</function>
for the full list.

The <parameter>type</parameter> parameter selects the type of communication
to be used by the socket. See <function>socket_create</function> for the
full list.

<para>
The <parameter>protocol</parameter> parameter sets the specific
protocol within the specified <parameter>domain</parameter> to be used
when communicating on the returned socket. The proper value can be retrieved by
name by using <function>getprotobyname</function>. If
the desired protocol is TCP, or UDP the corresponding constants
<constant>SOL_TCP</constant>, and <constant>SOL_UDP</constant>
can also be used.

See <function>socket_create</function> for the full list of supported
protocols.
