ALTO WG, in this new version of the draft we have improved:
- the description how XDOM discovery interacts with the services offered by the ALTO base protocol (Ch. 3), based on the feedback we got (thanks everyone who reviewed this document!) - extend the algorithm such that it also supports groups of endpoints defined by an IP address prefix. As always, feedback is most welcome!

This draft is a work item of the Application-Layer Traffic Optimization of the IETF. Title : Application Layer Traffic Optimization (ALTO) Cross-Domain Server Discovery Authors : Sebastian Kiesel Martin Stiemerling Filename : draft-ietf-alto-xdom-disc-01.txt Pages : 32 Date : 2017-07-03 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. Before an ALTO client can ask for guidance it needs to discover one or more ALTO servers that can provide suitable guidance. In some deployment scenarios, in particular if the information about the network topology is partitioned and distributed over several ALTO servers, it may be needed to discover an ALTO server outside of the own network domain, in order to get appropriate guidance. This document details applicable scenarios, itemizes requirements, and specifies a procedure for ALTO cross-domain server discovery. Technically, the algorithm specified in this document takes one IP address or prefix and a U-NAPTR Service Parameter (i.e., "ALTO: http" or "ALTO:https") as parameters. It performs DNS lookups (for NAPTR resource records in the in-addr.arpa. or ip6.arpa. tree) and returns one or more URI(s) of information resources related to that IP address or prefix.
