[zeromq-dev] Zyre ipaddress in Hello message

[Arnaud Loonstra]

Imagine I'm running Zyre on node A with multiple interfaces.
eth0: 192.168.1.10
eth1: 192.168.2.10

The zbeacon beacon is broadcasted on all interfaces. (255.255.255.255)
The zyre router socket listens on all interfaces. (tcp://*)
 From zbeacon I'm receiving an ipaddress of an interface: 192.168.1.10 
(self->host)

Now node B is discoverd through eth1. It will receive a HELLO message 
from Node A containing the ipaddress 192.168.1.10 however it should use 
192.168.2.10 instead. The two nodes can't finish their handshake.

I haven't tested this but I was going through the code and I understand 
this will happen.

Am I missing something here?

To circumvent a situation like this. The HELLO message doesn't need to 
contain an ipaddress because Node B can get the ipaddress from the 
message it receives on its socket.
The routing table of the OS on Node A will make sure the right socket 
will be picked.

I was just wondering this situation. Anybody experience with this?

Rg,

Arnaud
