ZMQ_TIPC(7)                       0MQ Manual                       ZMQ_TIPC(7)


NAME

       zmq_tipc - 0MQ unicast transport using TIPC


SYNOPSIS

       TIPC is a cluster IPC protocol with a location transparent addressing
       scheme.


ADDRESSING

       A 0MQ endpoint is a string consisting of a transport:// followed by an
       address. The transport specifies the underlying protocol to use. The
       address specifies the transport-specific address to connect to.

       For the TIPC transport, the transport is tipc, and the meaning of the
       address part is defined below.

       Assigning a port name to a socket

           When assigning a port name to a socket using _zmq_bind()_ with the 'tipc'
           transport, the 'endpoint' is defined in the form:
           {type, lower, upper}

           * Type is the numerical (u32) ID of your service.
           * Lower and Upper specify a range for your service.

           Publishing the same service with overlapping lower/upper ID's will
           cause connection requests to be distributed over these in a round-robin
           manner.

           Connecting a socket

       When connecting a socket to a peer address using zmq_connect() with the
       tipc transport, the endpoint shall be interpreted as a service ID,
       followed by a comma and the instance ID.

       The instance ID must be within the lower/upper range of a published
       port name for the endpoint to be valid.


EXAMPLES

       Assigning a local address to a socket.

           //  Publish TIPC service ID 5555
           rc = zmq_bind(socket, "tipc://{5555,0,0}");
           assert (rc == 0);
           //  Publish TIPC service ID 5555 with a service range of 0-100
           rc = zmq_bind(socket, "tipc://{5555,0,100}");
           assert (rc == 0);

       Connecting a socket.

           //  Connect to service 5555 instance id 50
           rc = zmq_connect(socket, "tipc://{5555,50}");
           assert (rc == 0);
