When connecting distributed applications over a network with 0MQ, using the TCP transport will likely be your first choice\&. +.SH "ADDRESSING" +.sp +A 0MQ address string consists of two parts as follows: \fItransport\fR://\fIendpoint\fR\&. The \fItransport\fR part specifies the underlying transport protocol to use, and for the TCP transport shall be set to tcp\&. The meaning of the \fIendpoint\fR part for the TCP transport is defined below\&. +.SS "Assigning a local address to a socket" +.sp +When assigning a local address to a socket using \fIzmq_bind()\fR with the \fItcp\fR transport, the \fIendpoint\fR shall be interpreted as an \fIinterface\fR followed by a colon and the TCP port number to use\&. +.sp +An \fIinterface\fR may be specified by either of the following: +.sp +.RS 4 +.ie n \{\ +\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c +.\} +.el \{\ +.sp -1 +.IP \(bu 2.3 +.\} +The interface name as defined by the operating system\&. +.RE +.sp +.RS 4 +.ie n \{\ +\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c +.\} +.el \{\ +.sp -1 +.IP \(bu 2.3 +.\} +The primary IPv4 address assigned to the interface, in it\(cqs numeric representation\&. +.RE +.sp +.RS 4 +.ie n \{\ +\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c +.\} +.el \{\ +.sp -1 +.IP \(bu 2.3 +.\} +The wildcard +*, meaning that the interface address is unspecified\&. +.RE +.if n \{\ +.sp +.\} +.RS 4 +.it 1 an-trap +.nr an-no-space-flag 1 +.nr an-break-flag 1 +.br +.ps +1 +\fBNote\fR +.ps -1 +.br +.sp +Interface names are not standardised in any way and should be assumed to be arbitrary and platform dependent\&. On Win32 platforms no short interface names exist, thus only the primary IPv4 address may be used to specify an \fIinterface\fR\&. +.sp .5v +.RE +.SS "Connecting a socket" +.sp +When connecting a socket to a peer address using \fIzmq_connect()\fR with the \fItcp\fR transport, the \fIendpoint\fR shall be interpreted as a \fIpeer address\fR followed by a colon and the TCP port number to use\&. +.sp +A \fIpeer address\fR may be specified by either of the following: +.sp +.RS 4 +.ie n \{\ +\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c +.\} +.el \{\ +.sp -1 +.IP \(bu 2.3 +.\} +The DNS name of the peer\&. +.RE +.sp +.RS 4 +.ie n \{\ +\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c +.\} +.el \{\ +.sp -1 +.IP \(bu 2.3 +.\} +The IPv4 address of the peer, in it\(cqs numeric representation\&. +.RE +.SH "WIRE FORMAT" +.sp +0MQ messages are transmitted over TCP in frames consisting of an encoded \fIpayload length\fR, followed by a \fIflags\fR field and the message body\&. The \fIpayload length\fR is defined as the combined length in octets of the message body and the \fIflags\fR field\&. +.sp +For frames with a \fIpayload length\fR not exceeding 254 octets, the \fIpayload length\fR shall be encoded as a single octet\&. The minimum valid \fIpayload length\fR of a frame is 1 octet, thus a \fIpayload length\fR of 0 octets is invalid and such frames SHOULD be ignored\&. +.sp +For frames with a \fIpayload length\fR exceeding 254 octets, the \fIpayload length\fR shall be encoded as a single octet with the value 255 followed by the \fIpayload length\fR represented as a 64\-bit unsigned integer in network byte order\&. +.sp +The \fIflags\fR field consists of a single octet containing various control flags: +.sp +Bit 0 (MORE): \fIMore message parts to follow\fR\&. A value of 0 indicates that there are no more message parts to follow; or that the message being sent is not a multi\-part message\&. A value of 1 indicates that the message being sent is a multi\-part message and more message parts are to follow\&. +.sp +Bits 1\-7: \fIReserved\fR\&. Bits 1\-7 are reserved for future expansion and MUST be set to zero\&. +.sp +The following ABNF grammar represents a single \fIframe\fR: +.sp +.if n \{\ +.RS 4 +.\} +.nf + frame = (length flags data) + length = OCTET / (escape 8OCTET) + flags = OCTET + escape = %xFF + data = *OCTET +.fi +.if n \{\ +.RE +.\} +.sp +The following diagram illustrates the layout of a frame with a \fIpayload length\fR not exceeding 254 octets: +.sp +.if n \{\ +.RS 4 +.\} +.nf +0 1 2 3 +0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 ++\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+ +| Payload length| Flags | Message body \&.\&.\&. | ++\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+ +| Message body \&.\&.\&. ++\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\- \&.\&.\&. +.fi +.if n \{\ +.RE +.\} +.sp +The following diagram illustrates the layout of a frame with a \fIpayload length\fR exceeding 254 octets: +.sp +.if n \{\ +.RS 4 +.\} +.nf +0 1 2 3 +0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 ++\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+ +| 0xff | Payload length \&.\&.\&. | ++\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+ +| Payload length \&.\&.\&. | ++\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+ +| Payload length| Flags | Message body \&.\&.\&. | ++\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+ +| Message body \&.\&.\&. ++\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+\-+ \&.\&.\&. +.fi +.if n \{\ +.RE +.\} +.SH "EXAMPLES" +.PP +\fBAssigning a local address to a socket\fR. +.sp +.if n \{\ +.RS 4 +.\} +.nf +/* TCP port 5555 on the local loopback interface on all platforms */ +rc = zmq_bind(socket, "tcp://127\&.0\&.0\&.1:5555"); +assert (rc == 0); +/* TCP port 5555 on the first ethernet network interface on Linux */ +rc = zmq_bind(socket, "tcp://eth0:5555"); +assert (rc == 0); +/* TCP port 5555 with an unspecified interface */ +rc = zmq_bind(socket, "tcp://*:5555"); +assert (rc == 0); +.fi +.if n \{\ +.RE +.\} +.PP +\fBConnecting a socket\fR. +.sp +.if n \{\ +.RS 4 +.\} +.nf +/* Connecting using an IP address */ +rc = zmq_connect(socket, "tcp://192\&.168\&.1\&.1:5555"); +assert (rc == 0); +/* Connecting using a DNS name */ +rc = zmq_connect(socket, "tcp://server1:5555"); +assert (rc == 0); +.fi +.if n \{\ +.RE +.\} +.sp +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.sp +\fBzmq_bind\fR(3) \fBzmq_connect\fR(3) \fBzmq_pgm\fR(7) \fBzmq_ipc\fR(7) \fBzmq_inproc\fR(7) \fBzmq\fR(7) +.SH "AUTHORS" +.sp +The 0MQ documentation was written by Martin Sustrik <\m[blue]\fBsustrik@250bpm\&.com\fR\m[]\&\s-2\u[1]\d\s+2> and Martin Lucina <\m[blue]\fBmato@kotelna\&.sk\fR\m[]\&\s-2\u[2]\d\s+2>\&. +.SH "NOTES" +.IP " 1." 4 +sustrik@250bpm.com +.RS 4 +\%mailto:sustrik@250bpm.com +.RE +.IP " 2." 4 +mato@kotelna.sk +.RS 4 +\%mailto:mato@kotelna.sk +.RE -- cgit v1.2.3
