  2. getaddrinfo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Getaddrinfo

    The following example uses getaddrinfo() to resolve the domain name www.example.com into its list of addresses and then calls getnameinfo() on each result to return the canonical name for the address. In general, this produces the original hostname, unless the particular address has multiple names, in which case the canonical name is returned ...

  3. Database connection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_connection

    An application failure occurs when the connection pool overflows. This can occur if all of the connections in the pool are in use when an application requests a connection. For example, the application may use a connection for too long when too many clients attempt to access the web site or one or more operations are blocked or simply inefficient.

  4. Link-local address - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Link-local_address

    Link-local addresses may be assigned manually by an administrator or by automatic operating system procedures. In Internet Protocol (IP) networks, they are assigned most often using stateless address autoconfiguration, a process that often uses a stochastic process to select the value of link-local addresses, assigning a pseudo-random address that is different for each session.

  5. List of DNS record types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_DNS_record_types

    For example, if there is both an A and an MX for a name, but the name server has only the A record cached, only the A record will be returned. Usually referred to as ANY (e.g., in dig , Windows nslookup , and Wireshark ).

  6. Zero-configuration networking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-configuration_networking

    Each host listens on the mDNS port, 5353, transmitted to a well-known multicast address and resolves requests for the DNS record of its .local hostname (e.g. the A, AAAA, CNAME) to its IP address. When an mDNS client needs to resolve a local hostname to an IP address, it sends a DNS request for that name to the well-known multicast address; the ...

  7. .local - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.local

    RFC 6762 was authored by Apple Inc. employees Stuart Cheshire and Marc Krochmal, and Apple's Bonjour zeroconf networking software implements mDNS. [3] That service will automatically resolve the private IP addresses of link-local Macintosh computers running macOS and mobile devices running iOS if .local is appended to their hostnames.

  8. File URI scheme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_URI_scheme

    The character sequence of two slash characters (//) after the string file: denotes that either a hostname or the literal term localhost follows, [3] although this part may be omitted entirely, or may contain an empty hostname. [4] The single slash between host and path denotes the start of the local-path part of the URI and must be present. [5]

  9. Proxy auto-config - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proxy_auto-config

    The myIpAddress function has often been reported to give incorrect or unusable results, e.g. 127.0.0.1, the IP address of the localhost. [5] It may help to remove on the system's host file (e.g. /etc/hosts on Linux) any lines referring to the machine host-name, while the line 127.0.0.1 localhost can, and should, stay.
