To run any demonstration you first need to configure BFT-SMaRt to define the protocol behavior and the location of each replica.
The servers must be specified in the configuration file (see config/hosts.config):
#server id, address and port (the ids from 0 to n-1 are the service replicas)
0 127.0.0.1 11000 11001
1 127.0.0.1 11010 11011
2 127.0.0.1 11020 11021
3 127.0.0.1 11030 11031
Important tip #1: Always provide IP addresses instead of hostnames. If a machine running a replica is not correctly configured, BFT-SMaRt may fail to bind to the appropriate IP address and use the loopback address instead (127.0.0.1). This phenomenom may prevent clients and/or replicas from successfully establishing a connection among them.
Important tip #2: Clients requests should not be issued before all replicas have been properly initialized. Replicas are ready to process client requests when each one outputs -- Ready to process operations in the console.
The system configurations also have to be specified (seeconfig/system.config). Most of the parameters are self explanatory.
