Class TUNNEL

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Lifecycle, DiagnosticsHandler.ProbeHandler, RouterStub.StubReceiver
    public class TUNNEL
extends TP
implements RouterStub.StubReceiver
    Replacement for UDP. Instead of sending packets via UDP, a TCP connection is opened to a Router (using the RouterStub client-side stub), the IP address/port of which was given using channel properties router_host and router_port. All outgoing traffic is sent via this TCP socket to the Router which distributes it to all connected TUNNELs in this group. Incoming traffic received from Router will simply be passed up the stack.

    A TUNNEL layer can be used to penetrate a firewall, most firewalls allow creating TCP connections to the outside world, however, they do not permit outside hosts to initiate a TCP connection to a host inside the firewall. Therefore, the connection created by the inside host is reused by Router to send traffic from an outside host to a host inside the firewall.

      • init

        public void init()
          throws java.lang.Exception
        Description copied from class: Protocol
        Called after a protocol has been created and before the protocol is started. Attributes are already set. Other protocols are not yet connected and events cannot yet be sent.
        Specified by:
        init in interface Lifecycle
        Overrides:
        init in class TP
        Throws:
        java.lang.Exception - Thrown if protocol cannot be initialized successfully. This will cause the ProtocolStack to fail, so the the channel constructor will throw an exception

      • destroy

        public void destroy()
        Description copied from class: Protocol
        This method is called on a JChannel.close(). Does some cleanup; after the call, the VM will terminate
        Specified by:
        destroy in interface Lifecycle
        Overrides:
        destroy in class TP

      • disconnectStub

        private void disconnectStub()

      • down

        public java.lang.Object down​(Event evt)
        Description copied from class: Protocol
        An event is to be sent down the stack. A protocol may want to examine its type and perform some action on it, depending on the event's type. If the event is a message MSG, then the protocol may need to add a header to it (or do nothing at all) before sending it down the stack using down_prot.down().
        Overrides:
        down in class TP

        Fetches the physical addrs for all mbrs and sends the msg to each physical address. Asks discovery for missing members' physical addresses if needed
