I'm going to make a pitch for the IP-address based method.

Specifically, if you have a set of well known IP addresses for common
services, thus something like:

223.255.255.1 - Primary DNS
223.255.255.2 - Secondary DNS
223.255.255.3 - SMTP Mail
223.255.255.4 - Time Server

Why did you choose to have exactly 2 DNS servers and exactly 1 SMTP
and "time" server?
