Each member can be either +a sender or a receiver. + +The sender sends small messages to the multicast group with a random +wait period in [0, 1] second range. The receiver is simply receiving +those messages and prints them out. + +To start the sender you can execute something like this: + +$ ./member s sender-1 239.255.0.1:10000 + +Here the first argument ('s') indicates that new member will be +a sender. The second argument ('sender-1') is an id of the new +member (each member of the group should have a unique id). And +the third argument ('239.255.0.1:10000') specifies IPv4 multicast +address and port (you can choose you own). + +To start the receiver you can execute similar command: + +$ ./member r receiver-1 239.255.0.1:10000 + +After you have started both the receiver and the sender you +should see a sequence of messages printed by the receiver. + +Note, since the group can exist with only one member for a +very short period of time you should start first two members +virtually at the same time. See TMCast documentation for more +information about why it behaves this way. + +You may want to add more than one sender to the group if you +want to see how TMCast operates in a totally-ordered mode. + + +-- +Boris Kolpackov <boris@dre.vanderbilt.edu> |
