I recommend reading section 5 of "Understanding Apple's Back-to-My-Mac Service" [RFC 6281], which gives a brief summary of how this problem is effectively and reliably managed in that system. There you will find references to the following truly under-loved technical specifications: <http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-sekar-dns-ul> <http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-sekar-dns-llq> Maybe HOMENET could push for these to be taken up as IETF work items? -- james woodyatt <j...@apple.com> member of technical staff, core os networking _______________________________________________ homenet mailing list homenet@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/homenet
