Multiple instance of RPMsg
##########################
Overview
********
Multiple instance of RPMsg is an abstraction created over OpenAMP.
It simplifies the initialization and endpoint creation process.
This sample demonstrates how to use multi-instance RPMsg in Zephyr.
Building the application for nrf5340dk_nrf5340_cpuapp

.. zephyr-app-commands::
:zephyr-app: samples/subsys/ipc/rpmsg_multi_instance
:board: nrf5340dk_nrf5340_cpuapp
:goals: debug
Open a serial terminal (for example Minicom or PuTTY) and connect the board with the following settings:
- Speed: 115200
- Data: 8 bits
- Parity: None
- Stop bits: 1
When you reset the development kit, the following messages (one for master and one for remote) will appear on the corresponding serial ports:
