    cacheex


    I have not used this so cannot comment on how good it is or not. Its a csp like feature so yes if ecm was served from cache yes times would be much faster the way it works i think is when more than one user is watching the same channel it only sends one request to the card instead of multiple with the other being served by cache.
    Setting up looks to be done via entries in both server and user configs.



    Im sure somebody else here will have used it and explain better.

  • Let me have a go at it.
    CacheEx is short for Cache Exchange.
    As the name implies it is not just cache but will exchange your entire cache
    to the cache of a participant.
    In order to benefit from this one must have cache enabled and participants willing
    to exchange their cache with you.
    Both sides MUST have the same cacheex settings.
    No need to have C or other lines swapped!


    What happens is if an ECM request is done to f.i. your SERVER and the answer is given
    it will be stacked in your cache.
    This is also the case for those who participate in your cacheex.
    Hence it is not only the ECM's solved by your SERVER but of the entire sum
    of servers in your cacheex.


    Using cacheex will extent the possibility of a direct cache hit tremendously
    given the participants share different cards.

  • Hi guys!


    iam completly new at this forum and this is one of my first posts. Great forum by the way, has help me alot, and now iam trying to give something back to the community :)


    i have tested oscam and the cacheex modes there is, mode 1 - 2 - 3.


    at the tiem speaking i have multiple oscams runnig cacheex mode 2 and 3 as 1 is not recomended (oscam.cacheex) <----- if sombody have tested mode 1 with success iam happy to hear about it.


    iam throwing in a config exemple on cache exx mode 3 over camd35 UDP protocoll. as this mode only allow for cach exchange and not cardsharing.


    iam having great success with cacheex and it do the job very good. i have changed out my CSP server against this.



    example:


    CacheEX = Mode 3
    Protocol = camd35 UDP [cs357x]


    OBS: portforwarding needs 2 entry 1 for UDP and 1 for TCP


    oscam.conf
    camd35 - server


    Code
    [cs357x]
    port                          = 12000


    oscam.server
    Reader - cacheex




    oscam.user
    User for Oscam2 (two way connection)


    Code
    [account]
    user                          = USERNAME
    pwd                           = PASSWORD
    description                   = cacheex mode 3 camd35
    group                         = 1
    uniq                          = 3
    cacheex                       = 3
    allowedprotocols              = camd35


    This is config for a working two way setup


    it needs to be setup on both oscam (oscam1 and oscam 2)


    so the the reader of oscam1 is using user account of oscam2, and vice versa


    with this setup there os ONLY cahe and normal function (request ECM) wil not work. (CACH ONLY)



    If there is unclarity of how it works i can be of assisten of setting it up.


    Best regards

    PS: If you find this useful, please give me a thumbs up


  • used the above example and got the cacheex to work and getting hits also

  • I have done some experiments with CSP and cacheex


    if you have a CSP server and oscam you can make a very good setup here!


    what i did was this:


    setup CSP port in oscam, use CSP connector in CSP to push cache from csp to oscam


    then you can use cacheex in oscam to push it further to other oscam clients! or share, much more secure than giving direct access to csp.

  • Hi can you explain better this config
    Thanks

  • Hi can you explain better this config
    Thanks


    Hi m8


    Add this line to oscam.conf to enable CSP port in oscam


    Code
    [csp]
    port                          = 14000


    port is changable :)


    And use domain/IP of your server and port to setup a normal csp connector
    then you shuld be ready for action :P



    NOTE:


    There has been an critical update to OScam AFTER SVN 6486, Cache engine has been changed to a new one, called reloaded.
    This makes SVN version earlier that SVN 6486 uncompatible with SVN version later than 6486
    so update oscam before atempting to use CacheEX
