Hello Andreas & others,
I'd like to ask for clarification about the functionality of a
federated router network.
Lets say we have two 'LANs' (separate IP multicast domains) each with a
number of routers using only multicast communication within each domain (ie
no sys$routing.connectors within the LAN).
A single SwiftMQ router is chosen from each LAN as a 'gateway' by
establishing a sys$router.connectors to a corresponding SwiftMQ router in
the other multicast domain.
Can you confirm
1.) All multicast traffic from one domain is automatically 'repeated' across
the established connector & hence, re-multicast in the other domain? (even
if there are no common topics between the gateway SwiftMQ routers)?
if so
2.) If there is a sys$routing.connectors path (even indirect..ie 2+ hops)
between any two routers in the same multicast domain (ie routers A & B can
communicate via multicast & additionally are both connected to router C
which cannot) , traffic will loop endlessley?
& finally
3.) Is there a way to prevent multicast traffic from one domain, being
propagated across the connector?
cheers
Dominic Glynn
