*mDNS responder*

Type: ``bool``

Help
====

.. code-block:: none

    This option enables the mDNS responder support for Zephyr.
    It will listen well-known address ff02::fb and 224.0.0.251.
    Currently this only returns IP address information.
    You must set CONFIG_NET_HOSTNAME to some meaningful value and
    then mDNS will start to respond to <hostname>.local mDNS queries.
    See RFC 6762 for more details about mDNS.

Direct dependencies
===================

\ :kconfig:`NET_HOSTNAME_ENABLE <CONFIG_NET_HOSTNAME_ENABLE>` && \ :kconfig:`NETWORKING <CONFIG_NETWORKING>`

*(Includes any dependencies from ifs and menus.)*

Defaults

No defaults. Implicitly defaults to ``n``.
