| 3 | |||
| 4 | NFD Testbed operator should request adding SRV record to the domain names served as search list (“default domains”) by DHCP. |
||
| 5 | |||
| 6 | Highlight of the procedure: |
||
| 7 | |||
| 8 | - investigate list of domains returned by DHCP servers in the sites networks |
||
| 9 | |||
| 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. |
||
| 13 | |||
| 14 | - 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>. |
||
| 17 | |||
| 18 | For UCLA, this would be two records: |
||
| 19 | |||
| 20 | _ndn._udp.ucla.edu. IN SRV 0 0 6363 spurs.cs.ucla.edu. |
||
| 21 | |||
| 22 | and |
||
| 23 | |||
| 24 | _ndn._udp.cs.ucla.edu. IN SRV 0 0 6363 spurs.cs.ucla.edu. |
