4.2.5. Transport Descriptor configuration access

This section explains how to access the different configurable parameters in a transport descriptor profile. The scope of this section does not include explaining the usage of these specific parameters. Please, refer to Fast DDS documentation for that information.

The transport descriptor profile is accessed through the transport_descriptor element. The profile name is mandatory and must be passed within brackets. Whitespaces are allowed in the profile name if the profile name is quoted. The transport descriptor profile name matches the transport_id name defined in Fast DDS documentation. Consequently, transport_descriptor is a complex parameter map according to the Configuration parameter classification with the profile name as key.

fastddsqosprof <file> <verb> transport_descriptor[profile_name].<subelement>
fastddsqosprof <file> <verb> transport_descriptor["profile name"].<subelement>

The currently supported transport descriptor configurable <subelements> are explained in the table below.

<subelement>	CLI access	Configuration parameter classification	Valid set values
Transport descriptor kind	transport_descriptor[profile_name].kind	Simple parameter	udp_v4 (Default value) udp_v6 tcp_v4 tcp_v6 shm
Interface Whitelist	transport_descriptor[profile_name].interface_whitelist[]	Simple parameter list	IP or DNS address

Warning

Any other configurable <subelement> is not yet supported.
