Chapter 11. Fanout Protocol
Abstract
The fanout protocol allows clients to connect to multiple brokers at once and broadcast messages to consumers connected to all of the brokers at once.
URI syntax
Example 11.1, “Fanout URI Syntax” shows the syntax for a fanout URI.
Example 11.1. Fanout URI Syntax
fanout://(DiscoveryAgentUri)?Options
DiscoveryAgentUri is URI for the discovery agent used to build up the list of available brokers. The available discovery agents are listed in Chapter 12, Discovery Agents.
The options,
?Options, are specified in the form of a query list. The discovery options are described in Table 11.1, “Fanout Protocol Options”. You can also inject transport options into the discovered transports by adding their properties to the list.
Note
If no options are required, you can drop the parentheses from the URI. The resulting URI would take the form fanout://DiscoveryAgentUri
Transport options
The fanout protocol supports the transport options described in Table 11.1, “Fanout Protocol Options”.
