Using multicast in FABRIC

[XAVIER CASAS MORENO]

Hi,

I am using Zenoh for pub/sub and peer discovery. I want to have a setup where each node has a zenoh router and they discover themselves to exchange and gossip messages. Is multicast allowed in FABRIC networks?

How do you recommend proceeding with this? Should I create a private network with only the nodes that I want, or can I use fablib’s network interface directly?

Best regards,

Xavier

Hello, I think you will want to use FABlib to create a Layer2 network  to connect your VM interfaces. And then you should be able to use IP Multicast between VMs on that common Layer2 broadcast domain.   I have not tested this, so let us know if that works for you.  Tom
