SInce you don't use UDP/MCAST, there is no way for the peers to discover each other. So JGroups is forced to use TCPPING for discovery, which needs to know where to look, so to speak. anonymous wrote : | I am wondering how could a host outside of the LAN "sees" the multicast address of a certain group inside a LAN. | A host outside the LAN will not see a cluster within a LAN if you're using UDP/MCAST. If you want to be able to do this, use TCP - which you are doing. If you need to tunnel through firewalls, read up on the JGroups GossipRouter.
