In this chapter we describe the semantics of Ice connections. Section 36.3 defines the rules for connection establishment, including the consequences of connection failure and the effects of timeouts.
Section 36.4 provides details about active connection management and when to use it.
Section 36.5 demonstrates how Ice applications gain access to connections, while
Section 36.6 describes how a connection is closed. Finally,
Section 36.7 presents bidirectional connections and describes their use cases and configuration.
