Multicast DNS (mDNS) is a protocol used for network service discovery. It allows devices to automatically discover each other on the same local network without the need for a dedicated DNS server. It works by broadcasting DNS queries to all devices on the local network. When a device receives a query, it responds with its own information, such as its hostname and IP address. This allows devices to discover each other quickly and easily.
