NAME

       avahi.hosts - avahi-daemon static host name file


SYNOPSIS

       /usr/local/etc/avahi/hosts


DESCRIPTION

       /usr/local/etc/avahi/hosts is a file which may be used to define static
       host name to IP address mappings for multicast DNS. This is  especially
       useful  when  publishing  DNS-SD services on behalf of other hosts. See
       avahi.service(5) for more information.

       The file format is similar to the one of /etc/hosts: on each line an IP
       address  and  the  corresponding host name. The host names should be in
       FQDN form, i.e. with appended .local suffix.
