Peer Name Resolution Protocol (PNRP) is a peer-to-peer protocol designed by Microsoft. PNRP enables dynamic name publication and resolution, and requires IPv6.

PNRP is a distributed name resolution protocol allowing Internet hosts to publish "peer names" and corresponding IPv6 addresses and optionally other information. Other hosts can then resolve the peer name, retrieve the corresponding addresses and other information, and establish peer-to-peer connections. (from Wikipedia)

Should I assign my WCF P2P app a Port?

I'm building a WCF P2P service using the PNRP functionality. I see that I can assign a port to the Bindings... but most of the examples do not. Is there a reason I should or shouldn't give it a port?

How does PNRP find other peers on the internet?

I'd like to know how PNRP manages to detect other peers in the Global cloud (which I assume is over the internet). I've read it uses "an architecture similar to distributed hash table systems", but that doesn't really tell me much. It seems to me…
