Hello,
Is there a project or interest in using/implementing Dynamic
Configuration of IPv4 Link-Local Addresses
http://files.zeroconf.org/draft-ietf-zeroconf-ipv4-linklocal.txt
http://www.zeroconf.org/
basically, when all method of finding an ip failed (wireless/dhcp).
you try to find an available ip in the 169.254/16 subnetwork.
currently i know 2 software that implement it, and i think it's
incorporated in the ipv6 protocol.
MacOs and windows also implement it.
the 2 implementations available on linux:
