> weaveDNS uses weave’s UDP multicast to solicit answers from other servers when it doesn’t know a name. This probably won’t scale up very far, so we’re looking at other ways of doing that;

Does weaveDNS's use of UDP multicast go beyond simply finding other Weave nodes? i.e. Weave can discover other nodes via UDP multicast but you can also tell it addresses of other nodes if for instance, you are running in an environment that doesn't have UDP multicast available. I'm wondering if this same workaround can be used for weaveDNS.

The weave environment always constructs a network between the nodes that supports multicast.
