چکیده
The residential gateway is a device that has become an integral part of home networking equipment. Discovering a Location Information Server (LIS) is a necessary part of acquiring location information for location-based services. However, discovering a LIS when a residential gateway is present poses a configuration challenge, requiring a method that is able to work around the obstacle presented by the gateway.

A High-Availability Architecture for the Dynamic Domain Name System
The Domain Name System (DNS) provides a mapping between host names and Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. Hosts that are configured using the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) can have their assigned IP addresses updated in a Dynamic DNS (DDNS). DNS and DDNS are critical components of the Internet. Most applications use host names rather than IP addresses, allowing the underlying operat...
متن کاملAn Algorithm for Automatic Topology Discovery
A topology discovery algorithm for IP networks is proposed in this paper. Topology configuration information can be obtained from various sources including the MIBs in routers and gateways, the Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP), the traceroute program, the Domain Name System (DNS), and etc. In order to retrieve the MIB information in a router, the IP address of the router has to be known...

This paper presents three simple techniques for improving network service using relatively unknown features of many existing networks. The resulting system provides greater reliability, enhanced security, and ease of management. First, it addresses the application of IP anycast to provide reliable recursive DNS service. Next, it explains the use of unicast reverse path forwarding and its useful...
متن کاملSpoofing Attacks of Domain Name System Internet
The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical naming system that is built on a distributed database for computers, services, or any other resource connected to the Internet or a private network. It translates the domain names meaningful to humans into the numerical identifiers associated with the networking equipment for the purpose of locating and addressing these devices worldwide [1]. The j...
