traffic

Key: JGRP-105

https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-105
Project: JGroups
Issue Type: Feature Request
Affects Versions: 2.2.8
Reporter: Bela Ban
Assignee: Bela Ban
Fix For: Future
GossipRouter should be augmented to not just route traffic between TCP endpoints, but
also between an IP multicast group and all TCP endpoints.
It should be configured with the properties for a (multicast-based) group X, and then
forward messages from X to all of its attached endpoints, and vice versa.
In the future, this concept could be extended to generic bridging functionality, which
will allow to construct hierarchical messaging trees, similar to the MBone
