Field	Description
IP	The IP address of the application connected to the selected CI.
Port	The port on the selected CI that is used to communicate to the other application.
Process	The ID of the process in the selected CI.
Already on map	Yes — if this connection shows on the map. No — if this connection is not part of the service instance and not on the map.
System decision	The setting defines if Service Mapping keeps the discovered traffic-based connection or removes it. The value comes from the algorithm that Service Mapping uses.
User decision	(Optional) The setting overrides the System decision setting, which defines if Service Mapping keeps the discovered traffic-based connection or removes it. For example, if the System decision setting for a connection is Keep, and you want to remove this connection, select `Remove`.
