   🔍 Triage Summary (on-demand re-triage)

   Check	Result
   Issue type	Feature
   Environment	Not applicable (feature request, no environment details required)
   Area	Area\Managed SNI
   Duplicates	None found (related but distinct: #2119 "Implement SqlDataSource"; #17 covers API surface only, not Linux SSRP support, as noted by the reporter)
   Regression	Not indicated

   Analysis

   This is a feature request to extend the managed SNI implementation to support SQL Server Resolution Protocol (SSRP) discovery, enabling SqlDataSourceEnumerator/SqlClientFactory.Instance.GetDataSources to work on Linux and other non-Windows platforms using managed SNI. Today this relies on native SNI only, so Linux/managed-SNI clients cannot enumerate SQL Server Browser-announced instances. The reporter states they are actively working on an implementation. Severity/priority: P2 (cross-platform feature parity gap, not a regression or crash), likely straightforward to review once a PR is submitted since the reporter has design intent already.

   Next Steps

   • No environment validation needed since this is a feature request rather than a bug report.
   • Maintainers should confirm scope/design alignment with the reporter before large PRs land — the reporter explicitly asked for this via the issue to avoid unreviewed "2-3 large PRs out of the blue." Consider replying to acknowledge the approach and request a design sketch or draft PR for early feedback.
   • Review issue Implement SqlDataSource #2119 ("Implement SqlDataSource") for potential overlap in data-source enumeration design, and issues Design and implement SSRPHandler #2643/Implement DAC port lookup via SSRP( for SSRPHandler) #2704/Add SSRPHandler #2819 (closed SSRPHandler design/implementation issues) for prior art and any relevant discussion/decisions on SSRP handling in this codebase.
   • Given the reporter's stated intent to submit code, this is a good candidate to keep as Approval Needed until a maintainer confirms direction, then track incoming PR(s) against this issue.
