Connection ID -- Each Connection Handler is given a unique ID +# that is used in the "consumer_config" file to specify to which +# Consumers the Event Channel will forward incoming events from +# Suppliers using that connection. The Connection ID field is the +# "key" that is used to match up connections in this file with the +# Consumer subscription requests in the "consumer_config" file. +# The connection ids should start at 1 and monotonically increase +# by increments of 1. This makes it possible for the Gateway to +# properly allocate connection ids for Peers that connect to it. +# +# 2. Host -- The host name where the Supplier/Consumer peerd +# process is running. +# +# 3. Remote Port -- The port number where the remote +# Supplier/Consumer peerd process is listening on. +# If this is a '*' character it is an indication to the +# Gateway to use the "default value," e.g., which can be provided +# on the command-line, etc. +# +# 4. Handler Role -- i.e., Consumer ('C') or Supplier ('S') +# +# 5. Max Retry Timeout -- The maximum amount of time that we'll +# wait between retry attempts (these start at 1 second and +# double until they reach the Max Retry Timeout). +# If this is a '*' character it is an indication to the +# Gateway to use the "default value," e.g., which can be provided +# on the command-line, etc. +# +# 6. Local Port -- The port number that we want to use for +# our local Proxy connection. If this is the value 0 or the '*' +# character, then we'll let the socket implementation pick this +# value for us. +# +# 7. Priority -- Each Consumer/Supplier can be given a priority +# that will determine its importance relative to other +# Consumers/Suppliers (this feature isn't implemented yet). +# +# Connection Host Remote Handler Max Retry Local Priority +# ID Port Role Timeout Port +# ---------- -------- ------ ------ ---------- ----- -------- + 1 localhost * S * * 1 + 2 localhost * C * * 1 +# 3 mambo.cs * C * * 1 +# 4 lambada.cs * C * * 1 +# 5 lambada.cs * C * * 1 +# 6 tango.cs * C * * 1 +# 7 tango.cs * S * * 1 +# 8 tango.cs * C * * 1 |
