Connection Mode

Specifies whether a physical connection is established when an external connection is instantiated. Options: 

• Automatic: Establishes a physical connection when an external connection is instantiated.

• Manual: Does not automatically establish a physical connection when an external connection is instantiated.

  If a physical connection is not automatically established, a physical connection must be established from the Collaboration (for example, by calling the connect() method).
