Enable Cluster Keys (Utility Network Tools)

Summary

Creates a CLUSTERKEY attribute field on classes in a utility network. This attribute field is updated by the Calculate Cluster Keys tool with values that facilitate the grouping of features and objects in the network topology.

Cluster keys enable analytical operations to be performed more efficiently in the utility network when working with nonspatial junction and edge objects. The cluster keys are consumed by the network topology on enable and can be helpful when running operations that query the network topology, such as a trace.
