The program instance's Linxter API maintains an internal, encrypted list of its existing channels. Either through Web Manager or the program instance, the following options are available for managing existing communication channels:
- Close — closes (removes) an existing communication channel
- Unblock — removes a block for receiving requests from a specific instance
- ChannelRequestExists — determines whether the communication channel request exists
There are also a number of properties available for managing existing communication channels. Here are a few examples:
- OpenCommunicationChannels — gets the list of open communication channels with other program instances
- InstancesBlockedByMe — gets the list of blocked program instances that have been blocked by this program instance
- InstancesBlockedForMe — gets the list of blocked program instances that were blocked by the other program instance and therefore cannot be unblocked by this program instance
