Transport methods

The mcu-manager command supports the following transport methods:

  • Serial transport (serial) - Use serial communication to perform firmware operations on devices that support SMP over USB/UART. This includes operations like uploading firmware images, managing bootloader states, and other device management tasks.

  • Bluetooth Low Energy transport (ble) - Use Bluetooth Low Energy communication to perform firmware operations on devices that support SMP over Bluetooth LE. Requires a Nordic Semiconductor device that exposes the SoftDevice Controller over UART using the H:4 HCI transport protocol.

If anything is wrong, the commands error out with codes from Zephyr's MCUmgr Management API.
