TP: use of multiple transports ------------------------------ Key: JGRP-1424 URL: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/JGRP-1424 Project: JGroups Issue Type: Feature Request Reporter: Bela Ban Assignee: Bela Ban Priority: Major Fix For: 5.1 Refactor TP so that the socket sending and receiving is done in a separate class (UDP, TCP, TCP_NIO). Once this is done, add the ability to attach multiple transports to TP, e.g. UDP and TCP. The UDP transport could then be used for cluster wide messages (null destination) and the TCP transport could be used for unicast messages (non-null destination). Or this could be overridden by a message flag on a per-message basis ! We could even attach multiple transports of the same type, e.g. one per physical network (10.x.x.x and 192.168.x.x), and do round-robin sending over them.
