<p>For the forseeable future you will need to maintain legacy SRV records in addition to this file, and you should provide DANE TLSA records too if possible.</p>
<p>To make your server as accessible to other clients/servers no matter how bad the network they are on, it is advised to use port 443 when possible, as it looks the most like HTTPS.</p>
<p>Extra care must be taken in updating "public-key-pins-sha-256" similar to that which is required of HPKP and DANE, summarized here, you MUST add the new key, wait until at least 2 TTL periods have passed, and only then remove the old key.</p>
<p>To make connection discovery work in web clients (including those hosted on a different domain) the host service SHOULD set appropriate <link url="https://www.w3.org/TR/cors/">CORS</link> headers for Web Host Metadata files. The exact headers and values are out of scope of this document but may include: <em>Access-Control-Allow-Origin</em>, <em>Access-Control-Allow-Methods</em> and <em>Access-Control-Allow-Headers</em>.</p>
<p>Due care has to be exercised in limiting the scope of <em>Access-Control-Allow-Origin</em> response header to Web Host Metadata files only.</p>
