[jira] Commented: (AMQ-2753) Allow duplicate topic subscriptions in a network and use dispatch policy to use highest priority subscriptions such that the duplicates are only used for redundancy

Gary Tully commented on AMQ-2753:
---------------------------------

r948911, add priority network consumer dispatch policy that will ignore duplicates such that there can be redundancy in the network with the addition of suppressDuplicateTopicSubscriptions attribute on a network bridge, think this should do it.

{code}PolicyEntry policy = new PolicyEntry();
policy.setDispatchPolicy(new PriorityNetworkDispatchPolicy());{code}

> duplicate topic subscriptions are suppressed in a cyclic network, https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/AMQ-2030 but there is a use case where they can be usefull.
> imagine a usecase where we produce on the one broker and consume on other. These two brokers have a cyclic network connection between them. So usually the message is going directly from broker A to broker B, but when that network connector goes down, topic consumer on broker B stops receiving messages. We want to have a "message rerouting", so that in failure case messages start flowing A->C->B route, without a need to re-subscribe. 
> With a cyclic network like this, if we allow the duplicate subscriptions we need to choose among them to suppress duplicates and reduce network load. https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/AMQ-2704 added the audit which can help if we don't choose among the duplicates.
> A PriorityNetworkDispatchPolicy can choose to dispatch to the highest priority subscription in the case of duplicate network consumers so that the messages are suppressed at source.
