 The Homenet Control Protocol (HNCP) automatically manages IPv4 and IPv6 address assignment, routing, DNS, SD (ZeroConf/mDNS) and border firewalling between multiple routers in a "home network". It is specified as a set of RFCs to implement a minimalist state synchronization protocol for Homenet routers.\\  The Homenet Control Protocol (HNCP) automatically manages IPv4 and IPv6 address assignment, routing, DNS, SD (ZeroConf/mDNS) and border firewalling between multiple routers in a "home network".
