Dear ALTO WG members, this is only a minor update of the draft, clarifying the IPv6 prefix we request IANA to assign (thanks to Tim Chown for pointing out that the old example is within the range reserved for Teredo) and adding some more things to consider (multihoming, mobility, error handling, etc.)

Title : ALTO Server Discovery based on well-known IP Address Author(s) : Sebastian Kiesel Reinaldo Penno Filename : draft-kiesel-alto-ip-based-srv-disc-01.txt Pages : 14 Date : 2012-12-27 Abstract: The goal of Application-Layer Traffic Optimization (ALTO) is to provide guidance to applications that have to select one or several hosts from a set of candidates capable of providing a desired resource. ALTO is realized by a client-server protocol. This document establishes a well-known IP address for the ALTO service and specifies how ALTO clients embedded in the resource consumer can use it to access the ALTO service.
