Re: Practical way to force the IOC to talk with one client

Abdalla ,
Setting EPICS_CA_AUTO_ADDR_LIST=NO  will direct your IOC (or your gateway)  to only query the channel access servers/gateways listed in EPICS_CA_ADDR_LIST.
Look at the EPICS Channel Access Reference Manual for the version of CA you are using.for more information on these settings.

Hi

 

We want to force some IOCs to talk with our EPICS gateway, what is a practical way to achieve this? We did some experiments with EPICS ACF file and we were able to use an ACF file where only the EPICS gateway server has read and write access. I came across EPICS_CAS_ADDR_LIST but I am not sure if it is the opposite of EPICS_CA_ADDR_LIST or not. What do you think?
