Home network owners may have devices or services hosted on their home
network that they wish to access from the Internet (i.e., from a
network outside of the home network). Home networks are increasingly
numbered using IPv6 addresses, which in principle makes this access
simpler, but accessing home networks from the Internet requires the
names and IP addresses of these devices and services to be made
available in the public DNS.

This document describes how a Home Naming Authority (NHA) instructs
the outsourced infrastructure to publish these pieces of information
in the public DNS. The names and IP addresses of the home network are
set in the Public Homenet Zone by the Homenet Naming Authority (HNA),
which in turn instructs an outsourced infrastructure to publish the
zone on behalf of the home network owner.

This document is a product of the Home Networking Working Group of the IETF.
