1. A method, comprising:
- providing, by a device and to a domain name system (DNS), a request for candidate network nodes to which to connect;
receiving, by the device and from the DNS based on the request, a list of fully qualified domain names (FQDNs) for the candidate network nodes;
truncating, by the device, the FQDNs in the list of FQDNs to create a list of truncated FQDNs corresponding to the candidate network nodes; and
storing, by the device, the list of truncated FQDNs in a buffer associated with the device.

Abstract
A device provides, to a domain name system (DNS), a request for candidate network nodes to which to connect, and receives, from the DNS and based on the request, a list of fully qualified domain names (FQDNs) for the candidate network nodes. The device truncates the FQDNs in the list of FQDNs to create a list of truncated FQDNs corresponding to the candidate network nodes, and stores the list of truncated FQDNs in a buffer associated with the device.

8. A device, comprising:
-
a memory; and a processor to; provide, to a domain name system (DNS), a request for candidate network nodes to which to connect, receive, from the DNS and based on the request, a list of fully qualified domain names (FQDNs) corresponding to the candidate network nodes, truncate the FQDNs in the list of FQDNs to create a list of truncated FQDNs corresponding to the candidate network nodes, and store the list of truncated FQDNs in the memory, where the list of FQDNs corresponding to the candidate network nodes encompasses more memory space than the list of truncated FQDNs corresponding to the candidate network nodes. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A computer-readable medium, comprising:
one or more instructions that, when executed by a processor of a device, cause the processor to; provide, to a domain name system (DNS), a request for candidate network nodes to which to connect with the device, receive, from the DNS and based on the request, a list of fully qualified domain names (FQDNs) corresponding to the candidate network nodes, truncate the FQDNs in the list of FQDNs to create a list of truncated FQDNs corresponding to the candidate network nodes, and store the list of truncated FQDNs in a buffer associated with the device. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24)
