Connexion between MPTT, DC/DC and battery protect?

Hello everyone, I’m new here and a beginner in electricity.

While researching electrical circuits for my pickup truck, I had a few questions about MPTT, DC/DC, and battery protection, as well as how they relate to each other.
Can I connect them all together in a bus bar to link them directly to the auxiliary battery, or does each one need to be connected directly to the battery with a fuse in between?
If I connect the MPTT and DC/DC together to a bus bar and link them to the auxiliary battery, what is the purpose of my battery protection (all Victron Energy brand)?

Thank you in advance for your responses and understanding.
