> {color:#172b4d}With 3+ geo-red systems Geode replication has the forwarding
> feature which means that receiving cluster will forward the event it just got
> to all clusters it is connected to that have not yet received the
> event.{color}
> {color:#172b4d}This is possible because the originating cluster is setting
> metadata in the replication event like this:
> GatewaySenderEventCallbackArgument
> [originalCallbackArg=null;originatingSenderId=1;recipientGatewayReceivers=
> {color}{color:#172b4d}{3, 2}{color}{color:#172b4d}]
>
> Site receiving this event thus knows which is the originating site and which
> sites should have received this event. All others will have this event
> forwarded to. All this is legacy Geode behavior.
>
> However, originating site does not care if GW sender to a destination is
> stopped or not - only the fact GW sender is *created and attached* to a
> region is enough. This means if e.g. GW sender from Site1 to Site 3 is
> stopped (and has been stopped for a while - so this has nothing to do with
> timing) at the moment an event hits the replication it is only going to be
> sent to Site 2 *but with the same metadata*_._ Hence Site 2 will not forward
> to Site 3 (assuming it has a connection to it).{color}
