Chapter 5. Network connections

This section describes the standard format of the Connection URI string used to connect to an AMQP remote peer.

 scheme = ( "amqp" | "amqps" )
 host = ( <fully qualified domain name> | <hostname> | <numeric IP address> )

 URI = scheme "://" [user ":" [password] "@"] host [":" port]

Connection URI Examples

amqp://127.0.0.1
amqp://amqpserver.example.com:5672
amqps://joe:somepassword@bigbank.com
amqps://sue:secret@test.example.com:21000

AMQ .NET does not offer reconnect and failover, but it can be implemented in your application by intercepting connection errors and reconnecting. For example code, see the ReconnectSender.cs example.
