Forum Topic - reliable transport layer for QNET: (3 Items)
   
reliable transport layer for QNET  
I have read a variety of threads on QNET, about how you can bind it to either IP or IPsec protocol. However, neither of 
these has a guaranteed delivery mechanism such as TCP.

Therefore, can we bind QNET to communicate over TCP instead of IP, and what would be the command line option for "bind" 
to accomplish this?

Thanks in advance,

RE: reliable transport layer for QNET  
The design goal of QNET is itself is a reliable transportation layer.
That means it has it's own buffering/serilizing/ack/re-transmit algo
built in. So it is not relay on layer 2.
