---------------------------------------
Summary: Multicast discovery collides with a configured localhost
service
Key: OPENEJB-1854
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENEJB-1854
Project: OpenEJB
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: (trunk/openejb)
Environment: All
Reporter: Andy Gumbrecht
Assignee: Andy Gumbrecht
Priority: Minor
Fix For: (trunk/openejb)
If the discovery URI for a remote service group is 'localhost' then remote
clients should not be able to see it.
A server may want to only be visible to local clients, yet still advertise on
multicast.
Currently one of two things may happen on a remote client call:
1. A connection to the remote service group fails, as clients actually try to
connect the themselves (localhost)..
2. More serious - If the remote client 'also' has a locally configured service
on the same port then a connection is made to the service irrelevant of the
group when in fact the connection should fail.
