By default, network interface changes are propagated in the form of locators to other applications. This is done to support IP mobility scenarios.

For example, you could start a RTI Connext application with Wi-Fi and move to a wired connection. In order to continue communicating with other applications, this interface change has to be propagated.

In RTI Connext 5.2 (the initial release) and earlier versions of the product, IP mobility scenarios were not supported. 5.2 applications will report errors if they detect locator changes in a DataWriter or DataReader.

You can disable the notification and propagation of interface changes by setting this property to 1.

This way, an interface change in a newer application will not trigger errors in an application running 5.2 or earlier. Of course, this will prevent the new application from being able to detect network interface changes.
