Yes, I understand that configuration works. I guess my question is really more of why? Once I've connected the two brokers, messages should flow in either direction. Having to define the network connector on both sides makes it difficult to add more brokers to mix. When adding a new broker, it is fine for it to need to know about another broker to join with, but it is a maintenance headache for the existing broker(s) to need to be configured with a network connector to the newly added broker.
