PARALLEL INTERFACE SELECTIONS

摘要

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.
