Hello folks, I've just joined the mailing list, so my questions may already have been answered... - Why use the terminology "wide-area"? It usually means a large area, much more than even the (small?) enterprise scenario under discussion. What about re-using the terminology "site"? - Is it assumed that only a low volume of service discovery operations will be initiated (per unit time)? This "builds on" the zeroconf / single link case, but might be important to state explicitly. - I guess the constraint on the number of networks has to do with trying to limit the traffic load from multicast packets. Is multicast assumed? -- Regards, Charlie P.
