avahi-resolve: Resolve a local service to its IPv4.
$ avahi-resolve -4 --name ${service-local}
try on your machine
The command "avahi-resolve -4 --name ${service-local}" is used to resolve a local service name to its corresponding IP address using the Avahi framework.
Here is a breakdown of the command:
- "avahi-resolve": This is the command-line tool used for resolving network service names.
- "-4": This option specifies that only IPv4 addresses should be resolved. If you want to resolve both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, you can use "-6" instead.
- "--name ${service-local}": This is the parameter that represents the service name you want to resolve. "${service-local}" is likely a placeholder variable that should be replaced with the actual service name you want to resolve.
By running this command with a specific service name, you will get the corresponding IPv4 address of that service if it is available on the local network.
