MPING : limiting clustering to the local application

[jreeman]

Hello,

do you know how I can configure the MPING protocol for a clustered cache in the way that the nodes will only try to join nodes listening on the local machine ?

thx

Ok I have reslved my problem I use the "local" multicast address that is "224.0.0.1" and not "224.0.0.0" as I think before posting.
A last, my mping configuration that works so that limits the clustering only to local machine applications is :

<MPING timeout="3000" bind_to_all_interfaces="false"
 mcast_addr="224.0.0.1" mcast_port="7500" ip_ttl="8"
 num_initial_members="2" />

An alternative is to set ip_ttl="0"

An alternative is to set ip_ttl="0"

Thx, your solution works fine, the ttl is the number of switches or routers the udp message can pass.

actually After a try with other developper, my previous solution doesn't sound to work, I see ips of other guys in logs (for exemple : "Received new cluster view: [10.1.8.86:7800|1] [10.1.8.86:7800, 10.1.8.86:7801,10.1.8.76:7800, 10.1.8.76:7801]").
