At a minimum, I would expect the following queries:

PathRecord
MultiPathRecord
MCMemberRecord
ServiceRecord

Support for ServiceRecord set/delete and InformInfo are likely to be added once
kernel support is in place.

Is it a reasonable approach to export two devices with different permissions,
one that allows limited sends, and another that permits unfiltered sends?
