About Using Client Groups to Specify Permissions on Document Types
If you have one or more client groups that identify the set of documents that a cluster gateway can exchange with the remote cluster, you can use those groups to specify which documents are permitted to flow to and from which cluster gateway.
When you use a client group to specify the document type permissions for a cluster gateway, the can-publish and can-subscribe permissions in the client group are mapped to the cluster gateway permissions as follows:
This permission for a document type in the client group...
Sets this permission for the document type on the cluster gateway...
Can Publish
Allow Forward (Permits the cluster gateway to forward instances of the document type to subscribers in the remote cluster.)
Can Subscribe
Allow Receive (Permits the cluster gateway to receive instances of the document type from publishers in the remote cluster.)
Important:
If you want to set permissions on both cluster gateways, be sure that all of the document types in the selected client groups exist in both clusters.
