Highlight of the procedure:

- investigate list of domains returned by DHCP servers in the sites networks

10
    For UCLA, this would be    `cs.ucla.edu`, `ucla.edu`
11
12
    These domains can be discovered in network settings.  On OSX, one can run `ipconfig getpacket <network-interface> | grep domain_name` and see what DHCP returns.

- request the following record to be placed in the target zones
15
16
        _ndn._udp.<domain>.   IN SRV 0 0 6363 <fqdn-of-the-local-hub>.

    For UCLA, this would be two records:
19
20
        _ndn._udp.ucla.edu.   IN SRV 0 0 6363 spurs.cs.ucla.edu.

    and
