Looks like a nice thing; check out the documents at:
http://www.zeroconf.org/
These are the main 4 objectives:
To achieve this small-network functionality in IP, there are four main areas
of work:
1. Allocate addresses without a DHCP server.
2. Translate between names and IP addresses without a DNS server.
3. Find services, like printers, without a directory server.
4. Allocate IP Multicast addresses without a MADCAP server.
Number's 3 & 4 look very interesting for AG stuff :-)
