00318: be able to specify TTL for dcomm multicast
Summary: be able to specify TTL for dcomm multicast
Created: 2011–01–20 09:05
Status: Released
Category: Request
From: frankie
Version: 2.1
Released_In: 2.2
Description:
there has been cases where customers want to have the multicast go out beyond the local network, which would require overriding the default TTL of 1 on the multicast packets. This is a request to make that TTL configurable and default it to 1.
Comments
Done. There is now a new command line arg to the dsp_dcomm_tc plugin:
-ttl # (where # is the new TTL value. The default is 1.)
Note: To get this feature the latest dsp_dcomm_tc plugin and the latest libd_comm library must be used.
