Does this relate at all to these errors I'm seeing in my system.log:

These packets are coming from my wife's domain-joined Windows 11 PC. I see 2.0.0 is in FreeBSD ports but not 2.1.0, I haven't tested updating from 1.0.1...

No, unrelated. The host is requesting an SOA record (which mDNS does not have) -- see https://github.com/dennypage/mdns-bridge?tab=readme-ov-file#unsupported-mdns-types.
Very curious as to why the host is requesting an SOA record on mDNS. Please file an issue to follow up: https://github.com/dennypage/mdns-bridge/issues.
Thanks

I would like to install version 2.1 to test the fix on my 25.07.1 system. I am unsure how to do this since it is not showing in the package manager.
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you.
