In order to connect the Dispatchers into a grid you'll need to:
* specify an IP address or hostname on which the Dispatcher will be accessible
by the rest of the Grid nodes (i.e. other Dispatchers)
* specify a neighbouring Dispatcher when running a new one
* use different Pipe IDs -- these are used to identify independent bandwidth
* Specify an IP address or hostname on which the Dispatcher will be accessible
by the rest of the Grid nodes (i.e. other Dispatchers).
* Specify a neighbouring Dispatcher when running a new one.
* Use different Pipe IDs -- these are used to identify independent bandwidth
lines to the target in order to split the workload in a way that will
aggregate the collective bandwidth
aggregate the collective bandwidth.
After that they will build their network themselves.
After that, they will build and maintain their network themselves.
Here's how it's done...

**Firing up the first one:**
Running the first Dispatcher:
arachni_rpcd --pipe-id="Pipe 1" --nickname="My Dispatcher" --address=192.168.0.1
**Adding more to make a Grid:**
Adding more in order to form a Grid:
arachni_rpcd --pipe-id="Pipe 2" --nickname="My second Dispatcher" --address=192.168.0.2 --neighbour=192.168.0.1:7331
**Lather, rinse, repeat:**
Lather, rinse, repeat:
arachni_rpcd --pipe-id="Pipe 3" --nickname="My third Dispatcher" --address=192.168.0.3 --neighbour=192.168.0.2:7331
arachni_rpcd --pipe-id="Pipe 4" --nickname="My forth Dispatcher" --address=192.168.0.4 --neighbour=192.168.0.3:7331
That sort of setup assumes that each Dispatcher is on a machine with independent
bandwidth lines (to the target website at least).

If you want to, out of curiosity, start a few Dispatchers on localhost you will
need to specify the ports:
The above setup assumes that each Dispatcher is on a machine with independent bandwidth lines
(to the target website at least). If you want to, out of curiosity, start a few Dispatchers on
`localhost` you will need to specify unique port numbers for them:
arachni_rpcd --pipe-id="Pipe 1" --nickname="My Dispatcher"
arachni_rpcd --pipe-id="Pipe 2" --nickname="My second Dispatcher" --port=1111 --neighbour=localhost:7331
arachni_rpcd --pipe-id="Pipe 3" --nickname="My third Dispatcher" --port=2222 --neighbour=localhost:1111
etc.
