The multihome interfaces introduced in Java DMK 5.0 enable you to select the interfaces for the different network protocols used by connector clients.
An HTTP(S) client enables you to select a local interface to receive notifications from a server. This user-specific local interface address is sent to a server and is then used by that server to push notifications. The interface address can be specified as either an IPv4 or an IPv6 address, or as a host name.
An RMI connector client does not need to specify a local interface, except when a Java DMK 5.0 client needs to connect to a server from Java DMK 4.2.
