Make NetworkConnectors two-sided
--------------------------------
Key: AMQ-1388
URL: https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/AMQ-1388
Project: ActiveMQ
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Ron Pressler
Consider the following scenario:
Several machines communicate using topics, using a hub-and-spoke topography,
but instead of having all messages go through a central broker, each machine
has an embedded vm broker to enable efficient intra-machine communication.
This is a common architecture.
Currently, to support such an architecture, if we want to allow dynamic
addition of machines, we need to configure both a network connector on each
machine to connect to the central hub, a tcp transport connector on the hub (to
allow remote connections), as well as a multicast discovery on the central hub
and a tcp connector on each machine to allow the hub to connect back to it.
This is redundant, because the network connector from the vm broker to the
central hub should suffice to deliver messages in both directions, thus also
making the discovery unnecessary and the connections easier to maintain and
monitor.
