Hello all!

Perhaps it does not make sense this way, but I thought about reducing the node count for some congestion scenarios I'm currently working on.

By running 2 separate instances of GIST and NSLP code, each pair correctly doing their socket-API calls, and having 2 NICs on the PC, can I fake multiple nodes? (For example, in RMD, 1 egress and 1 core running on the same pc, associated with one NIC and IP address.)

Is there a working solution for running multiple (for ex. 2) GIST instances on the same machine, to which are attached separate NSLP instances correctly?

The problem is, I can't make my QoS-NSLP code register to different instances, they all hit one on the other side.I think this is a socket issue, but maybe it is hackable.

Would this interfere with the way GIST does its connections and signaling?

Just curious if I can cut my node count from 10 to 4, since qos filtering is on interface level, anyway :) I'm thinking of static IP configs here, no dynamic routing.

Thanks in advance,

Ferenc

PS: virtualization is no option for me now
