Obtaining Server Address when Domain Name System Proxy Solution Fails

摘要

The subject disclosure is directed towards establishing communication between a client computer and a network resource on a computer network when DNS resolution has failed because of a DNS proxy solution. A user may request that the client use a tool as an alternative to DNS resolution. The client may monitor the network for a broadcast from the network resource, which contains information needed for the client to access the network resource. The network resource may broadcast the information from time to time, or it may broadcast it in response to a specific request from the client.
