Why go with only one method?

No matter what, you're going to have to do some setup on the server side. There are going to be clients who don't want your "here I am!" packets polluting their network every 10 seconds or so. These can also be spoofed by the way which is a security risk.

There are also clients who are going to want that method for ease of configuration.

You can also support the DNS approach but you're still going to have to support manual entry of the address the user wants to use, such as in a situation where they have more than one server up and running, possible one for production use and another for testing.

Now you've got to let the users choose which server. Possibly limiting that the admin setting only, ...

There's a LOT more to this than what you're thinking about in your question.
