Detailed Description

Settings for discovery configuration.

<<extension>> This QoS policy controls the amount of delay in discovering entities in the system and the amount of discovery traffic in the network.

The amount of network traffic required by the discovery process can vary widely, based on how your application has chosen to configure the middleware's network addressing (e.g., unicast vs. multicast, multicast TTL, etc.), the size of the system, whether all applications are started at the same time or whether start times are staggered, and other factors. Your application can use this policy to make tradeoffs between discovery completion time and network bandwidth utilization. In addition, you can introduce random back-off periods into the discovery process to decrease the probability of network contention when many applications start simultaneously.

Field Documentation

◆ participant_liveliness_lease_duration

struct DDS_Duration_t DDS_DiscoveryConfigQosPolicy::participant_liveliness_lease_duration

The liveliness lease duration for the participant.

This is the same as the expiration time of the DomainParticipant as defined in the RTPS protocol.

If the participant has not refreshed its own liveliness to other participants at least once within this period, it may be considered as stale by other participants in the network.

Should be strictly greater than DDS_DiscoveryConfigQosPolicy::participant_liveliness_assert_period.

[default] 100 seconds

[range] [1 nanosec,1 year], > participant_liveliness_assert_period

◆ participant_liveliness_assert_period

struct DDS_Duration_t DDS_DiscoveryConfigQosPolicy::participant_liveliness_assert_period

The period to assert liveliness for the participant.

The period at which the participant will refresh its liveliness to all the peers.

Should be strictly less than DDS_DiscoveryConfigQosPolicy::participant_liveliness_lease_duration.

[default] 30 seconds

[range] [1 nanosec,1 year), < participant_liveliness_lease_duration

◆ remote_participant_purge_kind

DDS_RemoteParticipantPurgeKind DDS_DiscoveryConfigQosPolicy::remote_participant_purge_kind

The participant's behavior for maintaining knowledge of remote participants (and their contained entities) with which discovery communication has been lost.

Most users will not need to change this value from its default, DDS_LIVELINESS_BASED_REMOTE_PARTICIPANT_PURGE. However, DDS_NO_REMOTE_PARTICIPANT_PURGE may be a good choice if the following conditions apply:

  1. Discovery communication with a remote participant may be lost while data communication remains intact. Such will not typically be the case if discovery takes place over the Simple Discovery Protocol, but may be the case if the RTI Enterprise Discovery Service is used.
  2. Extensive and prolonged lack of discovery communication between participants is not expected to be common, either because participant loss itself is expected to be rare, or because participants may be lost sporadically but will typically return again.
  3. Maintaining inter-participant liveliness is problematic, perhaps because a participant has no writers with the appropriate DDS_LivelinessQosPolicyKind.

[default] DDS_LIVELINESS_BASED_REMOTE_PARTICIPANT_PURGE

◆ max_liveliness_loss_detection_period

struct DDS_Duration_t DDS_DiscoveryConfigQosPolicy::max_liveliness_loss_detection_period

The maximum amount of time between when a remote entity stops maintaining its liveliness and when the matched local entity realizes that fact.

Notification of the loss of liveliness of a remote entity may come more quickly that this duration, depending on the liveliness contract between the local and remote entities and the capabilities of the discovery mechanism in use. For example, a DDS_DataReader will learn of the loss of liveliness of a matched DDS_DataWriter within the reader's offered liveliness lease duration.

Shortening this duration will increase the responsiveness of entities to communication failures. However, it will also increase the CPU usage of the application, as the liveliness of remote entities will be examined more frequently.

[default] 60 seconds

[range] [1 nanosec, 1 year]

◆ initial_participant_announcements

DDS_Long DDS_DiscoveryConfigQosPolicy::initial_participant_announcements

The number of initial announcements sent when a participant is first enabled or when a remote participant is newly discovered.

Also, when a new remote participant appears, the local participant can announce itself to the peers multiple times controlled by this parameter.

[default] 5

[range] [0,1 million]

◆ min_initial_participant_announcement_period

struct DDS_Duration_t DDS_DiscoveryConfigQosPolicy::min_initial_participant_announcement_period

The minimum period between initial announcements when a participant is first enabled or when a remote participant is newly discovered.

A random delay between this and DDS_DiscoveryConfigQosPolicy::max_initial_participant_announcement_period is introduced in between initial announcements when a new remote participant is discovered.

The setting of DDS_DiscoveryConfigQosPolicy::min_initial_participant_announcement_period must be consistent with DDS_DiscoveryConfigQosPolicy::max_initial_participant_announcement_period. For these two values to be consistent, they must verify that:

DDS_DiscoveryConfigQosPolicy::min_initial_participant_announcement_period <= DDS_DiscoveryConfigQosPolicy::max_initial_participant_announcement_period.

[default] 1 second

[range] [1 nanosec,1 year]

◆ max_initial_participant_announcement_period

struct DDS_Duration_t DDS_DiscoveryConfigQosPolicy::max_initial_participant_announcement_period

The maximum period between initial announcements when a participant is first enabled or when a remote participant is newly discovered.

A random delay between DDS_DiscoveryConfigQosPolicy::min_initial_participant_announcement_period and this is introduced in between initial announcements when a new remote participant is discovered.

The setting of DDS_DiscoveryConfigQosPolicy::max_initial_participant_announcement_period must be consistent with DDS_DiscoveryConfigQosPolicy::min_initial_participant_announcement_period. For these two values to be consistent, they must verify that:

DDS_DiscoveryConfigQosPolicy::min_initial_participant_announcement_period <= DDS_DiscoveryConfigQosPolicy::max_initial_participant_announcement_period.

[default] 1 second

[range] [1 nanosec,1 year]

◆ locator_reachability_assert_period

struct DDS_Duration_t DDS_DiscoveryConfigQosPolicy::locator_reachability_assert_period

Period at which this DomainParticipant will assert the locators discovered from other DomainParticipants.

This setting configures the period at which this DDS_DomainParticipant will ping all the locators that it has discovered from other DomainParticipants. This period should be strictly less than DDS_DiscoveryConfigQosPolicy::locator_reachability_lease_duration.

If DDS_DiscoveryConfigQosPolicy::locator_reachability_lease_duration is DDS_DURATION_INFINITE this parameter is ignored. The DomainParticipant will not assert remote locators.

[default] 20 seconds

[range] [1 nanosec,1 year]

See also
DDS_DiscoveryConfigQosPolicy::locator_reachability_lease_duration

◆ locator_reachability_lease_duration

struct DDS_Duration_t DDS_DiscoveryConfigQosPolicy::locator_reachability_lease_duration

The time period after which other DomainParticipants can consider one of their locators as "unreachable" if they do not receive a REACHABILITY PING from this DomainParticipant.

For the purpose of this explanation, we will use 'local' to refer to the DomainParticipant in which we configure locator_reachability_lease_duration and 'remote' to refer to the other DomainParticipants communicating with the local DomainParticipant.

This setting configures a timeout announced to the remote DomainParticipants. This timeout is used by the remote DomainParticipants as the maximum period by which a remote locator must be asserted by the local DomainParticipant (through a REACHABILITY PING message) before considering this locator as "unreachable" from the local DomainParticipant.

When a remote DomainParticipant detects that one of its locators is not reachable from the local DomainParticipant, it will notify the local DomainParticipant of this event. From that moment on, and until notified otherwise, the local DomainParticipant will not send RTPS messages to remote DomainParticipants using this locator.

If this value is set to DDS_DURATION_INFINITE, the local DomainParticipant will send RTPS messages to a remote DomainParticipant on the locators announced by the remote DomainParticipant, regardless of whether or not the remote DomainParticipant can be reached using these locators.

[default] DDS_DURATION_INFINITE

[range] [1 nanosec,1 year] or DDS_DURATION_INFINITE

◆ locator_reachability_change_detection_period

This setting determines the maximum period at which this DomainParticipant will check to see if its locators are reachable from other DomainParticipants according to the other DomainParticipants' DDS_DiscoveryConfigQosPolicy::locator_reachability_lease_duration value.

If DDS_DiscoveryConfigQosPolicy::locator_reachability_lease_duration is DDS_DURATION_INFINITE this parameter is ignored. The DomainParticipant will not schedule an event to see if its locators are reachable from other DomainParticipants.

[default] 60 seconds

[range] [1 nanosec,1 year]

◆ secure_volatile_writer_publish_mode

struct DDS_PublishModeQosPolicy DDS_DiscoveryConfigQosPolicy::secure_volatile_writer_publish_mode

Publish mode policy for the built-in secure volatile writer.

Determines whether the built-in secure volatile DDS_DataWriter publishes data synchronously or asynchronously and how.

◆ secure_volatile_reader

struct DDS_RtpsReliableReaderProtocol_t DDS_DiscoveryConfigQosPolicy::secure_volatile_reader

RTPS reliable reader protocol-related configuration settings for the built-in secure volatile reader.

For details, refer to the DDS_RtpsReliableReaderProtocol_t

[default]
min_heartbeat_response_delay 0.0 seconds;
max_heartbeat_response_delay 0.0 seconds;
heartbeat_suppression_duration 0.0625 seconds;

◆ endpoint_type_object_lb_serialization_threshold

DDS_Long DDS_DiscoveryConfigQosPolicy::endpoint_type_object_lb_serialization_threshold

Option to reduce the size required to propagate a TypeObject in Simple Endpoint Discovery.

Minimum size (in bytes) of the serialized TypeObject that will trigger the serialization of a TypeObjectLb instead of the regular TypeObject.

For example, setting this property to 1000 will trigger the serialization of the TypeObjectLb for TypeObjects whose serialized size is greater than 1000 Bytes.

The sentinel value -1 disables TypeObject compression.

[default] 0. The default value 0 enables TypeObject compression by always sending TypeObjectLb.

[range] [-1, 2147483647]

◆ dns_tracker_polling_period

struct DDS_Duration_t DDS_DiscoveryConfigQosPolicy::dns_tracker_polling_period

Duration that specifies the period used by the DNS tracker to poll the DNS service and check for changes in the hostnames.

RTI Connext allows the use of hostnames instead of IP addresses when configuring initial peers for specific transports (e.g.: UDPv4 and UDPv6). The DNS tracker keeps the IP addresses of these hostnames updated. The DNS tracker builds a list of hostnames from the initial peers of a DomainParticipant, queries the DNS for those hostnames, and updates the resolved IP addresses when the IP addresses change. The frequency of these queries is defined by the DNS tracker polling period. When the period is set to DDS_DURATION_INFINITE, the tracker is disabled.

RTI Connext keeps information regarding the hostnames of peers if they are part of the DDS_DiscoveryQosPolicy::initial_peers. The information regarding peers added through the DDS_DomainParticipant_add_peer operation is kept only if the DNS tracker has been enabled before adding a peer.

[default] DDS_DURATION_INFINITE

[range] [1 second,1 year], DDS_DURATION_INFINITE
