A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : A DNS Resource Record for Service Descriptions Author(s) : Eliot Lear Filename : draft-lear-httpbis-svcinfo-rr-01.txt Pages : 13 Date : 2013-02-21 Abstract: Certain application protocols are highly transactional and require substantial care when dealing with latency. Queries for versioning information are, in these circumstances, costly. In addition, there is a desire to allow for a means to specify a lightweight means to alternative transport protocols, such as making use of SCTP instead of TCP. This memo specifies a new DNS RR with an eye toward the least necessary roundtrips to determine various protocols, port numbers, and options for a given service instance.
