| Peer members discover each other using one or more locators. |

| The `gemfire.properties` file can list the locators: |
| |
| ``` pre |
| locators=<locator1-address>[<port1>],<locator2-address>[<port2>] |
| ``` |
| |
| To run a standalone member, the `gemfire.properties` file disables using locators: |
| |
| ``` pre |
| locators= |
| mcast-address= |
| mcast-port=0 |
| ``` |
| |
| **Note:** |
| Locator settings must be consistent throughout the cluster. |
