We can enable the pool or just create a pool to be enabled at a later stage as we require more or different resources. The Pool can also be published into a category folder and restricted to a specific connection server. Think about the user in Europe HOL Healthcare that needs to be part of the France Connection servers and not the Spain Connection Servers. This is an example but the use case for Connection server restrictions go far beyond this. The same can be applied to the type of client connections.
