[jira] [Created] (CXF-6795) WS-Discovery add support for discovery on localhost

Nick Birnie created CXF-6795:
--------------------------------

             Summary: WS-Discovery add support for discovery on localhost
                 Key: CXF-6795
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-6795
             Project: CXF
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: WS-* Components
    Affects Versions: 3.1.5
            Reporter: Nick Birnie


The current WS-Discovery implementation does not support discovering services which are provided on localhost. This is due to an obscure detail of multicast communications. When a multicast packet is sent, by default it is not echoed back to the host that sent it.

See: http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Multicast-HOWTO-6.html

This should be an easy fix by setting the appropriate options on the MulticastSocket used by WSDiscoveryClient (which I believe is implemented by UDPConduit in UDPTransport).
