avahi-resolve1

Usage

Overview

Resolve one or more mDNS/DNS host name(s) to IP address(es) (and vice versa) using the Avahi daemon.

Options

When passing -n, specify one or more fully qualified mDNS/DNS host name(s) (e.g. "foo.local") to resolve into IP addresses on the command line.

When passing -a, specify one or more IP addresses to resolve into host names. When enable-wide-area is set to yes in avahi-daemon.conf(5), reverse lookups will go over unicast DNS first and fallback to mDNS.

avahi-resolve-address is equivalent to avahi-resolve --address.
