Defining Compatibility Matrices for Connections

Preferences lets you create compatibility matrices to be used to allow heterogeneous connections.

These matrices are used to verify if a connection creation is allowed. If no compatibility rule is defined in any matrix, the default policy applies.

Before you begin: The user must have created functional flows, software interfaces, or hardware ports.

Environment: On premises only

  1. In the Connections Compatibility nodes, select a category, click Add , and search for elements to define their connection compatibility matrix.

    Depending on the domain, the respective commands are as follows:

    Category Corresponding command In the Preferences dialog box
    Functional Flows Add flows Flows are displayed as a matrix
    Software Interfaces > Sender Receiver Interfaces Add sender receiver interfaces Senders and receivers are displayed as a matrix
    Software Interfaces > Client Server Interfaces Add client server interfaces Clients and servers are displayed as a matrix
    Hardware Types by Link Technology Add hardware types Types are displayed as a matrix

  2. To define the compatibility matrix, select or clear check boxes in this matrix.
