Feature #15853

Updated by Marcos M 2 months ago

mDNS Bridge is intended as an alternative to Avahi reflection for sharing Multicast DNS across network interfaces. 

 Compared with Avahi, mDNS Bridge is expected to offer several advantages: 
 * mDNS Bridge is purpose built for bridging mDNS data only. 
 * Does not retain state across packets (no caching). 
 * Correctly forwards mDNS NSEC packets. 
 * Supports newer mDNS packet types such as OPT, SVCB and HTTPS. 
 * Offers interface specific inbound/outbound filter controls. 
 * Smaller and simpler code, offering easier inspection/validation. 
 * Run time memory requirements approximately 1/2 the size of Avahi.
