Description
When connections are started by routers to other routers there is no reliable way in the log files for telling the connections apart. Consider a pair of routers where router A creates two connections and sends two Opens to router B. A's log will show that connections [5] and [7] sent the Opens and B's log will show that connections [4] and [6] received and replied to the Opens. But there is no way to know if the connection pairs are '[A-5][B-4] and [A-7][B-6]' or '[A-5][B-6] and [A-7][B-4]'.
A simple solution to expose this relationship is for the routers to embed the connid in the Open properties. Then the connection relationships between the two routers could be resolved from either router log file.
