[Openslp-devel] iphone and android SA?

[Nick W. <ne...@wi...>]

Every once in a while, I come across someone wanting to have SA
functionality on their iphone or android.  Usually we try to find a
solution to the application/protocol so UA functionality is all that is
needed, but it comes up enough that I thought it might be nice to discuss
solutions as a group.

As always, the issue is port 427 requiring root access.  It is configurable
in openslp, but moving this to a higher port number means everyone has to
know the new port and be configured to that port.

What if the application required that a DA is online?  It would appear that
SAs could find and register with the DA, even though they can't respond to
any multicast.

Any other ideas?
