moneropedia | Canonically-unique host |
|
|
A host that is canonically resolved to an address or set of addresses |
The Basics
A Canonically-unique host is a FQDN that will canonically resolve to a designated address or set of addresses. Not to be confused with a @locally-unique-host.
In-depth information
A Canonically-unique host is defined by remote authoritative sources; usually through DNS. When resolving a peer's hostname, you will most likely use an external source for resolution unless you have the following implemented:
- a database file similar to a hosts file
- an internal-network resolver (which eventually pulls from external sources)
Notes
- Monero primarily uses @canonically-unique-host resolution while @I2P only uses @locally-unique-host resolution.
- @I2P's and @Kovri's self-assigned top-level domain is currently
.i2p
and @Kovri intends to only process/use the.i2p
top-level domain
