RMI-IIOP also uses the IIOP protokol.

BEA WebLogic and oder RMI EJB servers should move to RMI-IIOP to ensure
interoperability among servers. EJB needs a common logic for transmitting
client transaction and security properties, a common communication protocol.
RMI-IIOP will anyway be mandatory in the next EJB releases.
