Disable multicast and Enable unicast for cyclone dds
Hi Everyone,
For security reasons, I want to disable the multi-cast on my cyclone DDS and enable uni-cast to setup communication with ROS2. I have used the below information on my xml file where I have disabled multicast and set my laptop's IP as the peer address to communicate over that network.
<CycloneDDS xmlns="https://cdds.io/config" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="https://cdds.io/config https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eclipse-cyclonedds/cyclonedds/master/etc/cyclonedds.xsd">
<Domain Id="any">
<General>
<Interfaces>
<NetworkInterface autodetermine="true" priority="default" multicast="false" />
</Interfaces>
<AllowMulticast>false</AllowMulticast>
<MaxMessageSize>65500B</MaxMessageSize>
</General>
<Discovery>
<Peers>
<Peer Address="192.168.0.111" />
</Peers>
</Discovery>
<Internal>
<Watermarks>
<WhcHigh>500kB</WhcHigh>
</Watermarks>
</Internal>
<Tracing>
<Verbosity>finest</Verbosity>
<OutputFile>cdds.log.${CYCLONEDDS_PID}</OutputFile>
</Tracing>
</Domain>
Now, with this configuration file, I ran the demonodescpp talker and listener on different terminals with CYCLONEDDS_URI
variable being the path of the above xml file, even with that my listener node was not able to subscribe the talker node.
I'm I missing something on my configuration setup?
My system specs: Ubuntu 22.04 with ROS2 Humble.
