Examples

Forwarding output to a printer

•	The Service Broker runs on the address 134.123.6.87:1717.

•	A StreamServer has published the service print_doc version 2. It uses port 1616 to communicate with the Service Broker.

•	Another StreamServer invokes print_doc version 2 via the Service Broker.

The client requests print_doc version 2. The Service Broker forwards the document to the server. The server processes the document and sends the output to a printer.
