1. mDNS Development Plan TWNIC 20-21 May 2000

2. What is the Problem Problem #1 –Existing Internet doesn't deliver multilingual name resolution –S1 : Developing multilingual DNS (mDNS) Problem #2 –There is no multilingual registry in gTLD, ccTLD –S2 : Coordinate Model : redirect multilingual inquiry to mDNS, otherwise forward ASCII name (RFC1035) inquiry to existing DNS Problem #3 –Multilingual system interoperability –S3 : mDNS Roaming Network

3. DNS Coordinate Architecture Local mDNS mDNS Country Root Multilingual Infra ASCII DNSRoot System ASCII Infra Local mDNS mDNS Country Root Multilingual Infra Local mDNS Root Table

4. mDNS Roaming Network BIG5 GB UTF5 JIS ASCII Infra mDNS Registrar Alliance mDNS Roaming Network mDNS Root Table BIG5 GB UTF5 JIS BIG5 GB UTF5 JIS BIG5 GB UTF5 JIS BIG5 GB UTF5 JIS BIG5 GB UTF5 JIS BIG5 GB UTF5 JIS

5. mDNS Topology

6. mDNS Virtual Root 分配 每一個國家 / 地區擁有自己字碼的 Pseudo Root Server 共同維護及交換每一個 Root Server 之 root cache table Root Cache Table 之內容 : 1. 每一個國家 / 地區與有一個 ccTLD 與最常用之 Local Encoding 2. 每一個國家 / 地區與有一個 mgTLD 與最常用之 Local Encoding 3.ccTLD 及 mgTLD 另有 UTF-8 之 Global Encoding mDNS Server 皆能支援各國 Local Encoding 及 Global Encoding

7. Windows Client & Server 之轉碼

8. TWNIC C-DNS Task Force Chinese Domain Name Technical Task Force Chair: Prof. Lee-Ming Tseng (NCU) Prof. Jin-Ming Ho (Sinica) Activity Technical research and support to mDNS implementation/promotion Provide mDNS solutions and testing Cooperation among ccTLD Draft standard-related documentations

9. mDNS 發展目標 不需下載 client 程式 容易轉換現有 DNS 至 mDNS Root Cache Table 維護機制 兼顧 Local Encoding 及 Global Encoding 不用 Zero Level Domain (ZLD) 不須與英文 Domain Name 有相依性 Application/resolver ( 含 proxy 、 send mail) 皆須支援 8-bit clean 聯合撰寫技術文件提交 IETF
