How do you map the path portion of a URL onto a label for a DNS RRset?
Why, do you think, I have to map??? Any example URL?
AFAIK. the following conversion of authority section from:
<scheme>://[<userinfo>@]<host>[:<port0>]<path>[?<query>]
to
<scheme>://[<userinfo>@]<target>:<port><path>[?<query>]
by
_<scheme>.<host> SRV <priority> <weight> <port1> <target>
should be good enough for port independence, because <port>
and <host> are fully specified by the authority section, with
which <path> has nothing to do.
