Problems solved by technology

Depending on how many network interfaces are available, and whether the query times out, the process of locating an interface with configuration information can sometimes be time consuming for the client device, which in turn can delay applications running on the client device

Embodiment Construction

[0012] overview

[0013] Various embodiments enable parallel querying of multiple network interfaces for communication configuration information. The returned communication configuration information can be used by the client device to enable communication with another computing device. In some embodiments, multiple responses to parallel queries are received. Alternatively or additionally, the response from the network interface may be determined by expiration of a user-configured timeout and / or a protocol-configured timeout. Selecting a network interface from among the plurality of responses may be based at least in part on prioritizing the responding network interfaces using an adaptive selection algorithm.

[0014] In the following discussion, a section entitled "Example Operating Environment" is provided and describes one environment in which one or more embodiments may be employed. Following this, a section entitled "Parallel and Dynamic Network Interface Selection" d...

Abstract

Various embodiments enable parallel querying of multiple network interfaces for communication configuration information. Returned communication configuration information can be used by a client device to enable communication with another computing device. In some embodiments, multiple responses to the parallel queries are received. Alternately or additionally, a response from a network interface can be determined through expiration of a user-configured timeout and / or a protocol configured timeout. Selection of a network interface from the multiple responses can be based, at least in part, on prioritizing the responding network interfaces using an adaptive selection algorithm.

Description

Background technique [0001] Interconnectivity between computing devices is becoming more and more popular. Often, a first computing device interfaces with a remote computing device to exchange data. One such example involves a client-server relationship, where a server device has the ability to affect behavior and / or configuration associated with a client device. In some cases, a client device seeks dynamic network configuration information from a server device. To obtain this configuration information, the client device may send out a query to a network interface associated with the server device. If the network interface returns configuration information, the client device continues its task based on what was returned. However, if the interface times out and / or returns missing configuration information, the client device may decide to send a query to the second network interface. This process can repeat itself until the client device obtains the requested configuration i...
