To facilitate the sharing of portal content (roles, worksets, pages, and iViews) between two or more portals that reside in a federated portal network (FPN), you need to create an FPN connection.

An FPN connection pairs one portal to another. The portals in an FPN connection can share content in one direction or both – the portal giving its content to the other portal is called the producer and the portal receiving content from the other portal is called the consumer. Since you can share content between two portals in both directions, each portal in an FPN connection can be a producer and a consumer, at the same time.
