thanks for the information. i think i'm confused, though, as to how consumers/producers would specify a specific cluster and a machine?
so say i've got consumers/producers in china that need to connect to a cluster running in chicago named "foo". I've also got another cluster of brokers in chicago running as "bar" how would the consumers/producers specify which cluster to connect to? would my consumers connect as "discovery:multicast://chicago.mycompany.com/foo" -and- "discovery:multicast://chicago.mycompany.com/bar" ?? thanks again for the help.. paul --- Sridhar Komandur <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > but what if the client in question is not on the > same subnet? > > It need not be in the same subnet, as long as your > network (router) is > running a multicast routing protocol lik PIM-SM/DM > or PIM-BIDIR. > > On 5/22/06, Paul Tomsic <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > but what if the client in question is not on the > same > > subnet? > > is there some type of > > "multicast://my.machine.com/clustername" > > > > connection string? > > > > > > --- Adrian Co <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > > > > > > > > Paul Tomsic wrote: > > > > > > > > if i'm running a cluster of brokers in > discovery > > > > multicast mode, i have the following on the > broker > > > > config: > > > > > > > > <transportConnector > uri="tcp://my.machine.com:0" > > > > discoveryUri="multicast://foo"/> > > > > > > > > and my network connector is: > > > > <networkConnector uri="multicast://foo"> > > > > > > > > that "foo" sets up the name of the cluster, > right? > > > > > > > > > > Yep. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > how do clients connect to that? > > > > > > > > > > Try using a connection factory with the > following > > > uri: > > > "discovery:multicast://foo" > > > > > > > > > > > > > do they need advanced knowledge of the port > that > > > the > > > > broker binds to? > > > > > > > > > > I don't think so. > > > > > > > > > > > > > so let's say i've got a remote client trying > to > > > > connect, what would the client connection look > > > like, > > > > so that the client can connect to anyone of > the > > > > brokers in that "foo" cluster? > > > > > > > > thanks > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Hope this helps. :) > > > -- > > > View this message in context: > > > > > > http://www.nabble.com/broker-discovery+client+help-t1651573.html#a4500616 > > > Sent from the ActiveMQ - User forum at > Nabble.com. > > > > > > > > > > >
