@ -46,28 +46,27 @@ Each channel is assigned one of 3 roles:
1. `PRIMARY` or `1`
- This is the first channel that is created for you on initial setup.
- Can not be disabled.
- Only one primary channel can exist.
- Only one primary channel can exist and can not be disabled.
- Direct messages are only available on this channel.
2. `SECONDARY` or `2`
- Can modify the encryption key (psk).
3. `DISABLED` or `0`
- The channel is no longer available for use.
- Channel settings are cleared.
- All channel settings are set to default.
## Channel Settings Values
The Channel Settings options are: ID, Name, PSK, Downlink Enabled, and Uplink Enabled. Channel settings are embeded in the `Channel` protobuf as a `ChannelSettings` protobuf and sent as an admin message.
If a channel is disabled, all channel settings are set to default.
### ID
Used to construct a globally unique channel ID.
`0` by default for `default` channel.
The full globally unique ID will be `name.id` where ID is base36 encoded. Assuming that the number of Meshtastic users is below 20K (true for a long time) the chance of this 64 bit random number colliding with anyone else is super low. The penalty for collision is low as well.

The full globally unique ID will be `<name>.<id>` where ID is base36 encoded. Assuming that the number of Meshtastic users is below 20K (true for a long time) the chance of this 64 bit random number colliding with anyone else is super low. The penalty for collision is low as well.
