Cloud Configuration

To switch eCAL to cloud mode, edit your ecal.yaml and change the following settings:

# Registration layer configuration
registration:
  [..]
  # true  = all eCAL components communicate over network boundaries
  # false = local host only communication (Default: false)
  network_enabled: true

[..]

# Transport layer configuration
transport_layer:
  udp:
    [..]

    network:
      [..]
      # TTL (hop limit) is used to determine the amount of routers being traversed towards the destination
      ttl: 3

Important

Don’t forget to set your multicast routes and make sure your hostname resolution works on all machines!
