Local Server-Less DNS Name Resolution for IPv6

Overview Local Server-Less Domain Name System (LSLDNS), also known as multicast DNS, is a new capability in the IPv6 protocol that is provided with Microsoft Windows CE version 4.1 and later. LSLDNS provides a method to resolve names on an ad hoc, single-subnet network that does not contain a functioning DNS server. IPv4 in Windows TCP/IP solves this problem by using NetBIOS over TCP/IP (NetBT), which is enabled by default. With NetBT, a querying node broadcasts a NetBIOS Name Query Request message to the local subnet broadcast address.
