NN_BUS(7)                       nanomsg manual                       NN_BUS(7)

NAME
       nn_bus - message bus scalability protocol

SYNOPSIS
       #include <nanomsg/nn.h>

       #include <nanomsg/bus.h>

DESCRIPTION
       Broadcasts messages from any node to all other nodes in the topology.
       The socket should never receives messages that it sent itself.

       This pattern scales only to local level (within a single machine or
       within a single LAN). Trying to scale it further can result in
       overloading individual nodes with messages.

           Warning

           For bus topology to function correctly, user is responsible for
           ensuring that path from each node to any other node exists within
           the topology.

       Raw (AF_SP_RAW) BUS socket never sends the message to the peer it was
       received from.

   Socket Types
       NN_BUS
           Sent messages are distributed to all nodes in the topology.
           Incoming messages from all other nodes in the topology are
           fair-queued in the socket.

   Socket Options
       There are no options defined at the moment.
