.SH "NAME"
zmq_tcp \- 0MQ unicast transport using TCP
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.sp
TCP is an ubiquitous, reliable, unicast transport\&. When connecting distributed applications over a network with 0MQ, using the TCP transport will likely be your first choice\&.
.SH "ADDRESSING"
.sp
A 0MQ endpoint is a string consisting of a \fItransport\fR:// followed by an \fIaddress\fR\&. The \fItransport\fR specifies the underlying protocol to use\&. The \fIaddress\fR specifies the transport\-specific address to connect to\&.
.sp
For the TCP transport, the transport is tcp, and the meaning of the \fIaddress\fR part is defined below\&.
.SS "Assigning a local address to a socket"
.sp
When assigning a local address to a socket using \fIzmq_bind()\fR with the \fItcp\fR transport, the \fIendpoint\fR shall be interpreted as an \fIinterface\fR followed by a colon and the TCP port number to use\&.
.sp
An \fIinterface\fR may be specified by either of the following:
.sp
.RS 4
.ie n \{\
\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
.\}
.el \{\
.sp -1
.IP \(bu 2.3
.\}
The wild\-card
*, meaning all available interfaces\&.
.RE
.sp
.RS 4
.ie n \{\
\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
.\}
.el \{\
.sp -1
.IP \(bu 2.3
.\}
The primary IPv4 or IPv6 address assigned to the interface, in its numeric representation\&.
.RE
.sp
.RS 4
.ie n \{\
\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
.\}
.el \{\
.sp -1
.IP \(bu 2.3
.\}
The non\-portable interface name as defined by the operating system\&.
.RE
.sp
The TCP port number may be specified by:
.sp
.RS 4
.ie n \{\
\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
.\}
.el \{\
.sp -1
.IP \(bu 2.3
.\}
A numeric value, usually above 1024 on POSIX systems\&.
.RE
.sp
.RS 4
.ie n \{\
\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
.\}
.el \{\
.sp -1
.IP \(bu 2.3
.\}
The wild\-card
*, meaning a system\-assigned ephemeral port\&.
.RE
.sp
When using ephemeral ports, the caller should retrieve the actual assigned port using the ZMQ_LAST_ENDPOINT socket option\&. See \fBzmq_getsockopt\fR(3) for details\&.
.SS "Unbinding wild\-card addres from a socket"
.sp
When wild\-card * \fIendpoint\fR was used in \fIzmq_bind()\fR, the caller should use real \fIendpoind\fR obtained from the ZMQ_LAST_ENDPOINT socket option to unbind this \fIendpoint\fR from a socket using \fIzmq_unbind()\fR\&.
.SS "Connecting a socket"
.sp
When connecting a socket to a peer address using \fIzmq_connect()\fR with the \fItcp\fR transport, the \fIendpoint\fR shall be interpreted as a \fIpeer address\fR followed by a colon and the TCP port number to use\&. You can optionally specify a \fIsource_endpoint\fR which will be used as the source address for your connection; tcp://\fIsource_endpoint\fR;\*(Aqendpoint\*(Aq, see the \fIinterface\fR description above for details\&.
.sp
A \fIpeer address\fR may be specified by either of the following:
.sp
.RS 4
.ie n \{\
\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
.\}
.el \{\
.sp -1
.IP \(bu 2.3
.\}
The DNS name of the peer\&.
.RE
.sp
.RS 4
.ie n \{\
\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
.\}
.el \{\
.sp -1
.IP \(bu 2.3
.\}
The IPv4 or IPv6 address of the peer, in its numeric representation\&.
.RE
.sp
