("ISC") b10-msgq DESCRIPTION The b10-msgq daemon provides message routing for the Command Channel. The Command Channel is a message bus and subscription manager. Programs may subscribe to certain groups to receive messages for that group. Every new connection to b10-msgq is assigned a unique identifier -- this is the local name. The commands it handles are: getlname — receive local name. send — send a message to defined subscribers. subscribe — add a subscription. This means it is a listener for messages for a specific group. unsubscribe — remove a subscription. It listens on 127.0.0.1. The b10-msgq daemon may be cleanly stopped by sending the SIGTERM signal to the process. This shutdown does not notify the subscribers. OPTIONS The arguments are as follows: , The UNIX domain socket file this daemon will use. The default is /usr/local/var/bind10-devel/msg_socket. , Enabled verbose mode. This enables diagnostic messages to STDERR. Displays more about what b10-msgq is doing. SEE ALSO bind108 , BIND 10 Guide. AUTHORS The b10-msgq daemon and Control Channel specification were initially designed by Michael Graff of ISC. HISTORY The python version was first coded in December 2009. The C version with now deprecated wire format was coded in September 2009.
