Class: ConnectionPoint

A connection point is a hardware or software interface that enables an asset to communicate with other assets.

As of now this schema doesn't specify the structure of common connection points like Ethernet ports. But it will probably be added in future versions of this schema. Otherwise the details will be provided on specialized schemas.

    description: 'A connection point might rely on another connection point to work.

      Examples: a TCP/IP connection can only work if there is some kind of connection
      point at physical level (e.g. Ethernet Port, Bluetooth Port), a container might
      be connected over a virtual ethernet to a software bridge, a software bridge
      might be directly connected to an ethernet port.

      This attribute enables modeling these kind of dependencies in a limited way.
      Other modeling mechanisms might be needed to model complex networking set-ups.'
