Link receivers [Collection]
A link can have multiple link receivers. For applications that use point-to-point messaging, there is one link receiver for each messaging engine in the foreign bus, that is, the bus that sends messages across the link. For applications that use publish/subscribe messaging, there is one link receiver for each topic space in the foreign bus. The link receiver acts as an inbound receiver queue for a messaging engine that has applications attached and that is producing messages across this service integration bus link.
