 ------------------------------------------------
 | localhost (127.0.0.1)                        |
 |                           +--+ +--+          |
 |                 M1        |  | |  |      M1  |
 |               -------->   |  +-+  +--+   M3  |
 |                 M2        | rabbit1  |   M5  |
 |               -------->   |          |   M7  |
 |  +--+ +--+      M3        +----------+       |
 |  |  | |  |    -------->                      |
 |  |  +-+  +--+   M4                           |
 |  |  hare    | -------->                      |
 |  |          |   M5                           |
 |  +----------+ -------->    +--+ +--+         |
 |                 M6         |  | |  |     M2  |
 |               -------->    |  +-+  +--+  M4  |
 |                 M7         | rabbit2  |  M6  |
 |               -------->    |          |      |
 |                            +----------+      |

Downstream messages are sent as M1, M2..... M7.
The messages received on the federated clients are as
rabbit1 receiving M1, M3, M5, M7
rabbit2 receiving M2, M4, M6

Why are all the messages not being received by both rabbit1 and rabbit2.

This also happens for the case below:
1) node name: hare
host: 204.11.52.128

2) node name: rabbit1
host: 192.168.1.1 (NAT: 204.8.156.142)

3) node name: rabbit2
host: 192.168.1.2 (NAT: 204.8.156.142)

i.e hare is a hosted rabbitmq server. While rabbit1 and rabbit2 are in a
local environment accessing hare.

Regards.
