[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (JGRP-2098) Discovery: reduce messages when IpAddressUUID is used

[Bela Ban (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-2098?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13300225#comment-13300225 ] 

Bela Ban commented on JGRP-2098:
--------------------------------

I added attribute {{max_rank_to_reply}} to {{Discovery}}. If {{TP.use_ip_addrs}} is enabled and the rank is higher than {{max_rank_to_reply}}, then a member won't send a discovery response.

This is implemented in {{PING}} and {{TCPPING}}.

> Since IpAddressUUID already contains the physical address, we don't need to exchange physical addresses in the discovery phase.
> Investigate whether this leads to reduced messaging in discovery, ie. only the coords might send a response. Once the new member has the view, it automatically knows the IP addresses and ports of all members, as the addresses in the view are of type IpAddressUUID.
> Also investigate whether address:logical_name associations should be done in a separate protocol, e.g. NAMING.
