NN_TCP(7) nanomsg manual NN_TCP(7)NAMEnn_tcp - TCP transport mechanism
SYNOPSIS
#include <nanomsg/nn.h>
#include <nanomsg/tcp.h>
DESCRIPTION
TCP transport allows for passing message over the network using simple
reliable one-to-one connections. TCP is the most widely used transport
protocol, it is virtually ubiquitous and thus the transport of choice
for communication over the network.
When binding a TCP socket address of the form tcp://interface:port
should be used. Port is the TCP port number to use. Interface is one of
the following (optionally placed within square brackets):
· Asterisk character (*) meaning all local network interfaces.
· IPv4 address of a local network interface in numeric form
(192.168.0.111).
· IPv6 address of a local network interface in numeric form (::1).
When connecting a TCP socket address of the form
tcp://interface;address:port should be used. Port is the TCP port
number to use. Interface is optional and specifies which local network
interface to use. If not specified, OS will select an appropriate
interface itself. If specified it can be one of the following
(optionally placed within square brackets):
· IPv4 address of a local network interface in numeric form
(192.168.0.111).
· IPv6 address of a local network interface in numeric form (::1).
Finally, address specifies the remote address to connect to. It can be
one of the following (optionally placed within square brackets):
· IPv4 address of a remote network interface in numeric form
(192.168.0.111).
· IPv6 address of a remote network interface in numeric form (::1).
· The DNS name of the remote box.
Socket Options
NN_TCP_NODELAY
This option, when set to 1, disables Nagle’s algorithm. It also
disables delaying of TCP acknowledgments. Using this option
improves latency at the expense of throughput. Type of this option
is int. Default value is 0.
EXAMPLE
nn_bind (s1, "tcp://*:5555");
nn_connect (s2, "tcp://myserver:5555");
