LocoNS

Simple mDNS server supporting only A and AAAA records. It aims to be as simple as possible and not to fullfil all mDNS needs.

While you can start application on its own, I personally prefer to use it in Docker. To start it use something like this:

docker run \
    -v /etc/hosts:/etc/hosts \
    --network=host \
    medo64/locons:latest

Alternatively, you can use compose.yaml

The following environment variables can further configure the system:

Variable	Default	Description
`DEFAULT_TTL`	`90`	Default TTL to use when sending responses
`IP`	`any`	List of comma-separated IP addresses to bind to
`MINIMUM_TTL`	`60`	Minimum TTL when learning hosts from responses; will apply even for 0 TTLs
`NO_HOSTS`	`false`	If set to `true`, mDNS will not read `/etc/hosts` file
`NO_LEARN`	`false`	If set to `true`, mDNS will not learn from observed network responses
`PREFER_LEARNED`	`false`	If set to `true`, IP response will be ordered to prefer learned addresses

The following environment variables are for troubleshooting purposes and usually require no configuration:

Variable	Default	Description
`LOG_LEVEL`	`Information`	One of log levels: Verbose, Debug, Information, Warning, Error, Fatal
`USE_INOPERABLE_INTERFACES`	`false`	If true, engine will also use interfaces that are reported inoperable
`USE_UNSUPPORTED_INTERFACES`	`false`	If true, engine will also use interfaces that don’t support multicast
