Enabling Service Advertisement

The PXE advertises all enabled services that are reachable using the IP network. This feature uses DNS-SD (Domain Name System-Service Discovery) and mDNS (multicast DNS). The advertised services are discovered by clients that have implemented DNS-SD and mDNS.

The advertised services include the following:

This feature is enabled by default. The service advertisement feature supports both IPv4 and IPv6 protocols.

If you have set a preferred host name for IPv4 and/or IPv6, that host name can be used as the zero configuration .local host name, that is, <preferred_host_name>.local, where <preferred_host_name> is the preferred host name you have specified for PXE. The IPv4 host name is the first priority. If an IPv4 host name is not available, then use the IPv6 host name.

Note: For information on configuring IPv4 and/or IPv6 network settings, see Modifying Network Settings.
