4. Other Considerations

4.1. Multicast

The SOBA Framework uses multicast to communicate with a peer that exists in the same segment of the LAN. Therefore, include the settings for multicast in the routing table if they have not yet been included.

First, create the following file.
/etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/{interface}.route
(Example: /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/eth0.route)

Then, write the following contents into the file.
ADDRESS0=224.0.0.0
NETMASK0=240.0.0.0

4.2. Display Setting

The SOBA Framework supports only 16, 24, and 32 bit color settings for displays.

4.3. Warning Message

Although the following warning message may be displayed on the console while operating the SOBA Framework, there is no problem with its operation.

Warning: Cannot convert string "-watanabe-mincho-medium-r-normal--*-140-*-*-c -*-jisx0208.1983-0" to type FontStruct

End.
