Dear Developers! More we use the plugin, more we like it. Thanks for all your efforts!

Would it be possible to add Appliance, Connection, Certificate to the list of associated items to be able to show application dependency on telecom lines, server certificates and some special equipment. Many thanks in advance.

Hi, Appliance was already in the list. I added Certificate, but Connection does not exist. From v3.0.16 on. K.r,

Hello!

Indeed, in our instance Connection object was added by "Connections" plugin image

Actually the objective is to link Application to the telecom channel. For example, we have Internet connection, and Interoffice connection. Internet should be linked to App1 and App2, Interoffice - to App3. From the other side, Internet connection would be linked to Router1 and Interoffice - to Router2.

Now we link Routers directly to Apps structure objects, but it is not user-friendly way. App technical owners do not know which device serves which connection.

If not possible to use 3rd party plugin Objects, maybe there would be any idea, how to organise such link??

Hi, The plugin allows association with objects from the "Objects management" plugin, but not with other plugins (than mines :-). K.r,

Hi, we tried to adopt "Object management" plugin to maintain Connections inventory, but unfortunately it has no Associated items feature. So we cannot build complete hierarchy of the objects top-down from Application to the low-level network device. Unfortunately we're desperated to find any other solution.

Maybe you can give a hint how to modify the list of "Associated items" in archisw, so we can give a try to do it ourself?

Hi, In file .../marketplace/archisw/inc/swcomponent.class.php, line 37, the variable $types contains the list of classes that can be associated. K.r,
