Annouces IP addresses that don't match interfaces advertised on #11

If you have two interfaces, say, 192.168.49.* and 192.168.255.*, announce is picking the first non-loopback address and advertising that as the ip. It should be using the appropriate IP address for the interface it's announcing on, not just any old ip.

Thanks for catching this; do you have an idea on how to implement this?

karlp commented 8 years ago

no, just something quick I came across while evaluating alternatives to avahi-daemon. Currently working on the openwrt mdnsd tests, which, as noted are undocumented, but I think might actually work.

A fuller implementation is avahi, I am sure you have considered that. This here is the bare minimum if you want to squeeze every KB.

No, I've been using avahi-daemon, but I want to save space. Unfortunately, I can't really say this is the "bare minimum" if it's advertising the wrong IPs. I suspect you need to have a mdns instance per interface, not just a single instance? Anyway.
