Chapter 13 Using Multicast : Running Multicast

Running Multicast
For an example of multicast messaging, see Multicast Messaging Example
Starting the Multicast Daemon
The multicast daemon is located in your installation_path /bin directory and is a stand-alone executable named tibemsmcd on UNIX and tibemsmcd.exe on Windows platforms.
On a computer running Windows, you can also start the administration tool from the Start menu, following the path Programs > TIBCO > TIBCO EMS 7.0 > Start EMS Multicast Daemon.
Creating a Multicast Consumer
The EMS client is enabled for multicast by default, and no special configuration is required. To receive multicast data, the client need only create a multicast consumer by subscribing to a multicast-enabled topic using the NO_ACKNOWLEDGE mode, as described in Message Acknowledgement.
You can also disable multicast in a client, using API calls. For more information, see the API documentation for your language.
