   1.  The certificate MUST include a "DNS-ID" (i.e., a subjectAltName
       identifier of type dNSName).

   2.  If the service using the certificate deploys a technology in
       which a server is discovered by means of DNS SRV records
       [DNS-SRV] (e.g., this is true of [XMPP]), then the certificate
       SHOULD include an "SRV-ID" (i.e., an instance of the SRVName form
       of otherName from the GeneralName structure in the subjectAltName
       as specified in [SRVNAME]).

If 2 is true, what is the value of the required DNS-ID?
