On the Select Type dialog, create or select the element that is the type of the Resource Port, or create an untyped Resource Port.
• From an SV-2 Resource Communications Description:
◦ Resource Port toolbar button, and then click the diagram owner or Resource Role element that is to own the Resource Port. On the Select Type dialog, create or select the element that is the type of the Resource Port, or create an untyped Resource Port.
If the owner of the SV-2 Resource Communications Description is not shown on the diagram, create a Resource Port on the diagram owner by clicking in free space.
◦ From an appropriate Modeler pane, locate the element that you want to use as the type of the Resource Port, and then drag that element to the edge of the diagram owner or Resource Role element on the diagram.
If the owner of the SV-2 Resource Communications Description is not shown on the diagram, create a Resource Port on the diagram owner by dragging the type to free space.
The type of a Resource Port can be a Capability Configuration, Energy, Exchange Element, Geo Political Extent Type, Materiel, Organization, Physical Architecture, Post, Resource Artifact, Role Type, Service Access or Software.
