MulticastSupport
The behavior of local multicast.
Warning
The Multicast feature is not supported in the Tachyon 5.2 release. This feature is under consideration for re-design and may be available in future versions of Nomad.
Registry value | Default value | Notes | Installer property |
|---|---|---|---|
MulticastSupport | 0x0 (0) | All machines in a single branch must be configured using the same value for this parameter. If you are not using multicast, deploy the Nomad branch agent with theMODULE.NOMAD.MULTICASTSUPPORT property set to 0 to reduce the noise in Nomad logs. Prior to Nomad 7.0 multicast was enabled (0x1) by default. Now it is disabled (0x0) by default. |
Bit | Hex | Decimal | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
0x0 | 0 | No Multicast– disables the feature. | |
0 | 0x1 | 1 | Data Only Multicast – choose this for a standard Nomad multicast. Data refers to the content of the downloaded package. Nomad control communications are broadcast as normal on the local subnet. Select this option for standard functionality. |
1 | 0x2 | 2 | Control Only Multicast – control information refers to the communications between Nomad enabled machines, especially for elections. This may be used if there is more than one subnet in a single location to enable a single Nomad master to be elected for all the subnets. |
0x3 | 3 | Control and Data Multicast – data and control information is multicast. Select this option if a branch has multiple subnets connected by high speed routers. |
