Hi William,
As of now, the broadcast will be received by each
machine in the subnet. There could be ways(as of now, it is not there) to
configure lists of IP addresses (in case of TIPC) and allow opensaf talk to
configured IPs. Cluster expansion/shrinking would further require the ways to
add/del the nodes IPs at run time.
Thanks
