wez-mdns

This is a Rust crate that implements Multicast DNS resolution.

Why not the mdns crate? This one has a couple of important differences:

  • Tolerant of non-comformant DNS names - there are devices that implement mDNS discovery but that report non-comformant names. Rather than erroring out, those names are returned back to the caller.
  • High Fidelity Query Responses - this implementation returns the additional data portion from the mDNS query responses which are important for correctly resolving some services
