A new config parameter, broadcast_address -----------------------------------------
Key: CASSANDRA-2491 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-2491 Project: Cassandra Issue Type: Improvement Components: Core Environment: x86_64 GNU/Linux Reporter: Khee Chin Priority: Trivial A new config parameter, broadcast_address In a cluster setup where one or more nodes is behind a firewall and has a private ip address, listen_address does not allow the hosts behind the firewalls to be discovered by other nodes. Attached is a patch that introduces a new config parameter broadcast_address which allows Cassandra nodes to explicitly specify their external ip address. In addition, this allows listen_address to be set to 0.0.0.0 on the already firewalled node. broadcast_address fallsback to listen_address when it is not stated. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
