             Summary: RELAY2 : Address formats are not relayed.
                 Key: JGRP-1750
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-1750
             Project: JGroups
          Issue Type: Feature Request
    Affects Versions: 3.4.1
            Reporter: Karim AMMOUS
            Assignee: Bela Ban


When defining a relay channel, we haven't the ability to set an AddressGenrator. Indeed, the Relayer uses its own AddressGenerator providing addresses of type SiteUUID. 

This is particularly embarrassing in the following case: when we define a customized address format (like CanBeSiteMasterTopology or TopologyUUID) for members of two Sites A and B, address format is lost by crossing relay. Address type of messages sent by A to B are seen as SiteUUID at B side.

Suggestions:
- Making address format "relayable" ?
- Using the same (or an extended format) AddressGenerator of site Channel
