What is the average traffic of a successful SLP registration request or response?
A5: SLP Service registration occurs only when a DA is present and discovered by SAs on the network. If there is no DA, then SLP does not register services; each SA becomes its own island of information and only knows about services it holds and no one else’s. If a DA is configured, the SLP registration is a two-packet exchange between the SA and DA (req/rply). The DA will do an unsolicited advertisement using the 224.0.1.35 multicast address every three hours by default. This can be configured using the SET SLP DA HEART BEAT TIME parameter. When the DA advertises, it allows several SAs to discover it simultaneously. The SAs then register their services to it if they belong in the same scope.
