Network Connections
A network connections schema provides a comprehensive overview
of the network. It allows for quick identification of network issues,
making diagnosing and resolving connection problems easier.
If an issue arises and you see error messages indicating that one
component can't connect to another, refer to the connection table
to identify the failing connection. First, verify that the connections
are intact by logging into the controller or the replication agent
and checking the connection for the specific scenario.
