To my guess, requests are inserts/retrievals, correct?
What about connections? Requests can be part of it, yes? What else does
it include?
Thanks.
An inbound connection attempt is when a node contacts your node. An
outbound connection attempt is when your node contacts another node.
In both cases, after a successful connection, requests can be made, either
by your node or by the other node.
So for example, an inbound requests implies a connection between your node
and the other node, but doesn't imply which way that connection was set up -
your node could contact another node, and then after successful connection
the other node could make a request to your node: that would be one
OUTBOUND connection and one INBOUND request. Similarly, a node could
contact your node, and then make a request: that would be one INBOUND
connection and one INBOUND request. Similarly for outbound requests, where
your node initiates a request to a connected node.
One connection persists for as many requests are made to/from the connected
node - so one connection (inbound OR outbound) can have many inbound and
outbound requests.
hope that helps...
Thanks that's very helpful.
