Agent Discovery broadcasts

Hi

How do I turn off the agent discovery broadcasts on UDP port 13572. We are currently not using Agents.

I'm upsetting our network guys.

Thanks

Darryl

    Hi,

    Sorry, there's currently no way of doing this, but I'll make sure to add a way to disable it in the upcoming release of loadUI 2.0!

    There is a (very hacky) workaround for now, but it's not optimal. You can create a groovy script, and run the file using the Script Runner, which will disable the discovery. This will have to be done each time loadUI is started though, and it will likely have enough time to send out one or two packets before you are able to open the project to run the script. Anyway, the script to run is here:


    com.eviware.loadui.util.BeanInjector.getBean(com.eviware.loadui.api.discovery.AgentDiscovery).release()

    Hi,

    Just wanted to post a follow up on this. In loadUI 2.0 you can disable agent discovery by adding the system property:
    loadui.discovery.disable=true


    Either as a start up argument (adding "-Dloadui.discovery.disable=true") or by editing the system.properties file in the conf directory.
