Ok, so it _is_ a very basic "routing number".

I still don't know why you need this ID number. All you need is the hostname
and port number of each connected device. If some "hosting program" wants
to route messages between devices, all it needs to know are those two pieces
of info about each device. And of course, it must already have that info if 
the
software is communicating with those devices individually.

So what's the extra ID for?
