Re: Best Transport configuration for an standard jxta network?

Hi Joan,

if I understand what you're asking, then TCP is always the preferred  
way to connect. The problem is just that it isn't always possible,  
and in those cases HTTP is to be used. If you configure both TCP and  
HTTP transports, I believe that the endpoint router will choose the  
best one it can use in the current circumstances (so, TCP if  
possible, HTTP otherwise). Also, if some of the machines might be  
able to reach each other by multicast you should turn that on because  
it will be used if possible.

hth,

Vanessa
