Following the Circuit doc, inner ports are all connection between elements in a Circuit, while outer ports are the ports defined by the Port object. The global S-parameters are the scattering parameters of both “inner” and “outer” ports, while external are only the S-param for the "outer" ports.

connections' and 'intersections' and 'nodes' are essentially the same. Actually, an intersection can be made of multiple connections (at least one). A node or a connection are a link between two elements.
