Description

In the 0.x baseline access a Remote Port is configurable. These authorizations are stored in the flow.xml. In the 1.0.0 baseline these decisions will be made by a configurable authorizer. When possible, these access policies need to be converted to the authorizer upon starting with a legacy flow.

Note: This won't be possible when the authorizer is externally managed. When this is the case, we'll need to document that the access policies will need to be manually restored using the external tool the authorizer supports.
