Broker

The broker is a unique system that manages DSLinks. All DSLinks must connect to a broker. The broker also handles all the permissions for the DSLinks.

    • An active DSLink connection that is semi-authenticated. It is awaiting permission from the broker before it can send/request any data from the broker. The broker can close the connection if the DSLink attempts to make a request or send data without being fully authenticated.
