Name		Description	Dependency
DfmBroker		DFM Broker maintains a registry about DFM	None
		domain managers, which register the following
		information with the broker when its
		initialization is complete:
		• Application name of the domain manager
		• Hostname where the domain manager is
		running

		listening
		When a client needs to connect to the domain
		manager, it first connects to the broker to
		determine the hostname and TCP port where that
		server’s HTTP service is listening. It then
		disconnects from the broker and establishes a
