Outsourcing Home Network Authoritative Naming Service
draft-ietf-homenet-front-end-naming-delegation-11
Abstract
The Homenet Naming authority is responsible for making devices within
the home network accessible by name within the home network as well
as from outside the home network (e.g. the Internet). The names of
the devices accessible from the Internet are stored in the Public
Homenet Zone, served by a DNS authoritative server. It is unlikely
that home networks will contain sufficiently robust platforms
designed to host a service such as the DNS on the Internet and as
such would expose the home network to DDoS attacks.
This document describes a mechanism that enables the Home Network
Authority (HNA) to outsource the naming service to the Outsourcing
Infrastructure via a Distribution Master (DM).
