One of the goals of the authors of Multicast DNS (mDNS) and DNS-Based
Service Discovery (DNS-SD) was to retire AppleTalk and the
AppleTalk Name Binding Protocol (NBP) and to replace them with an IP-based
solution. This document presents a brief overview of the capabilities
of AppleTalk NBP and outlines the properties required of an IP-based
replacement.
