Priority
The priority of this target host. A client MUST attempt to
contact the target host with the lowest-numbered priority it can
reach; target hosts with the same priority SHOULD be tried in an
order defined by the weight field. The range is 0-65535. This
is a 16 bit unsigned integer in network byte order.
Weight
A server selection mechanism. The weight field specifies a
relative weight for entries with the same priority. Larger
weights SHOULD be given a proportionately higher probability of
being selected. The range of this number is 0-65535. This is a
16 bit unsigned integer in network byte order. Domain
administrators SHOULD use Weight 0 when there isn't any server
selection to do, to make the RR easier to read for humans (less
noisy). In the presence of records containing weights greater
than 0, records with weight 0 should have a very small chance of
being selected.
In the absence of a protocol whose specification calls for the
use of other weighting information, a client arranges the SRV
RRs of the same Priority in the order in which target hosts,
specified by the SRV RRs, will be contacted. The following
algorithm SHOULD be used to order the SRV RRs of the same
priority:
To select a target to be contacted next, arrange all SRV RRs
(that have not been ordered yet) in any order, except that all
those with weight 0 are placed at the beginning of the list.
Compute the sum of the weights of those RRs, and with each RR
associate the running sum in the selected order. Then choose a
uniform random number between 0 and the sum computed
(inclusive), and select the RR whose running sum value is the
first in the selected order which is greater than or equal to
the random number selected. The target host specified in the
selected SRV RR is the next one to be contacted by the client.
Remove this SRV RR from the set of the unordered SRV RRs and
apply the described algorithm to the unordered SRV RRs to select
the next target host. Continue the ordering process until there
are no unordered SRV RRs. This process is repeated for each
Priority.
Port
The port on this target host of this service. The range is 0-
65535. This is a 16 bit unsigned integer in network byte order.
This is often as specified in Assigned Numbers but need not be.
Target
The domain name of the target host. There MUST be one or more
address records for this name, the name MUST NOT be an alias (in
the sense of RFC 1034 or RFC 2181). Implementors are urged, but
not required, to return the address record(s) in the Additional
Data section. Unless and until permitted by future standards
action, name compression is not to be used for this field.
A Target of "." means that the service is decidedly not
available at this domain.

I'm Alphons van der Heijden, living in Lelystad, Netherlands, Europa, Earth. And currently I'm retiring from hard working ( ;- ), owning my own company. Because I'm full of energy, and a little to young to relax ...., I don't sit down, but create and recreate software solutions, that I like. Reinventing the wheel is my second nature. My interest is in the area of Internet technologies, .NET etc. I was there in 1992 when Mosaic came out, and from that point, my life changed dramatically, and so did the world, in fact. (Y)
