Per Liden | c11ac3f | 2006-01-16 16:32:18 +0100 | [diff] [blame] | 9 | The Transparent Inter Process Communication (TIPC) protocol is |
| 10 | specially designed for intra cluster communication. This protocol |
| 11 | originates from Ericsson where it has been used in carrier grade |
| 12 | cluster applications for many years. |
| 13 | |
| 14 | For more information about TIPC, see http://tipc.sourceforge.net. |
Per Liden | b97bf3f | 2006-01-02 19:04:38 +0100 | [diff] [blame] | 15 | |
| 16 | This protocol support is also available as a module ( = code which |
| 17 | can be inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you |
| 18 | want). The module will be called tipc. If you want to compile it |
