  • FLEXID9

  • FLEXID10

  • EXTENDED

  • INTERNET

  • INTERNET6

  • USER

While the deviceIdType in the deviceIdentifier can be used to identify the device being updated, the deviceIdType here in updateDevDataType can be used to change the device ID type of the device being updated.

TOLERANT should only be used to create a device as the result of a capability request sent from the device itself. That is, FNO honors requests with ID type of TOLERANT, but because there is no FNO code to support it, it should never be used to create or update a device.
