Description

Provides Avahi, the Linux implementation of mDNS and DNS-SD service discovery compatible with Bonjour-style networks. It lets devices and applications find printers, shares, media services, and other local resources without manual DNS setup.

Most desktop users receive it as network infrastructure. Administrators should review which services are advertised on shared or untrusted networks.

How to run
