9.12. QMF Client Connection Events

Whenever a client connects to or disconnects from the broker, a QMF Event message is generated and sent to a QMF topic.
The QMF topics for these events are:

Table 9.2. QMF Client Connection Event Topics

QMF queue Purpose
qmf.default.topic/agent.ind.event.org_apache_qpid_broker.clientConnect.#
Client connections
qmf.default.topic/agent.ind.event.org_apache_qpid_broker.clientConnectFail.#
Failed connection attempts
qmf.default.topic/agent.ind.event.org_apache_qpid_broker.clientDisconnect.#
Client disconnections
Additional properties in the QMF Client Connection and Disconnection event messages match connections and disconnections to specific clients to enable auditing and troubleshooting:
  • client_ppid [1]
  • client_pid
  • client_process
Here is an example of a QMF client connection event message, demonstrating the client connection information:
