### DNS discovery
DNS [SRV records][rfc-srv] can be used as a discovery mechanism.
The `-discovery-srv` flag can be used to set the DNS domain name where the discovery SRV records can be found.
The following DNS SRV records are looked up in the listed order:
The `--discovery-srv` flag can be used to set the DNS domain name where the discovery SRV records can be found.
Setting `--discovery-srv example.com` causes DNS SRV records to be looked up in the listed order:
* _etcd-server-ssl._tcp.example.com
* _etcd-server._tcp.example.com

If `_etcd-client-ssl._tcp.example.com` is found, clients will attempt to communicate with the etcd cluster over SSL/TLS.
If etcd is using TLS, the discovery SRV record (e.g. `example.com`) must be included in the SSL certificate DNS SAN along with the hostname, or clustering will fail with log messages like the following:
```
[...] rejected connection from "10.0.1.11:53162" (error "remote error: tls: bad certificate", ServerName "example.com")
```
If etcd is using TLS without a custom certificate authority, the discovery domain (e.g., example.com) must match the SRV record domain (e.g., infra1.example.com). This is to mitigate attacks that forge SRV records to point to a different domain; the domain would have a valid certificate under PKI but be controlled by an unknown third party.
The `-discovery-srv-name` flag additionally configures a suffix to the SRV name that is queried during discovery.
