Properties

Name Type Description
autoConnect*xsd:boolean

Indicates whether the specified adapter should automatically be connected to all the discovered controllers.

It is possible to automatically connect to all discovered controllers. This will only be attempted if this flag is set to true. Whether the connection attempt for an entry succeeded can then be determined via the corresponding connected field.

rootDiscoveryController*xsd:boolean

If set to true, this flag indicates we are connecting to a root/central discovery controller (RDC/CDC).

This will create a persistent connection between the host and the root discovery controller, thus enabling some advanced features.
