avahi.service(5)              File Formats Manual             avahi.service(5)

NAME
       avahi.service - avahi-daemon static service file

SYNOPSIS
       /etc/avahi/services/*.service

DESCRIPTION
       /etc/avahi/services/*.service  are XML fragments containing static DNS-
       SD service data. Every service file can contain multiple service  defi-
       nitions  which  share the same name. This is useful for publishing ser-
       vice data for services which  implement  multiple  protocols.  (i.e.  a
       printer implementing _ipp._tcp and _printer._tcp)

XML TAGS
       <service-group> The document tag of avahi service files. Should contain
       one <name> and one or more <service> elements.

       <name replace-wildcards="yes|no"> The service  name.  If  replace-wild-
       cards  is  "yes",  any occurence of the string "%h" will be replaced by
       the local host name. This can be used for service  names  like  "Remote
       Terminal  on  %h".  If  replace-wildcards is not specified, defaults to
       "no".

       <service protocol="ipv4|ipv6|any"> Contains the service information for
       exactly one service type. Should contain one <type> and one <port> ele-
       ment. Optionally it may contain one <domain-name>, one <host-name>, any
       number  of  <subtype>  and  any  number  of  <txt-record> elements. The
       attribute protocol specifies the protocol to advertise the service  on.
       If  any  is used (which is the default), the service will be advertised
       on both IPv4 and IPv6.

       <type>  Contains  the  DNS-SD  service  type  for  this  service.  e.g.
       "_http._tcp".

       <subtype>  Contains  an additional DNS-SD service subtype for this ser-
       vice. e.g. "_anon._sub._ftp._tcp".

       <domain-name> The domain name this service  should  be  registered.  If
       omited  defaults  to  the default domain of the avahi daemon. (probably
       .local)

       <host-name> The host name of the host that provides this service.  This
       should be a host that is resolvable by multicast or unicast DNS. Please
       note that you need to specify  a  fully-qualified  domain  name  (FQDN)
       here,  i.e.  .local  is  not appended implicitly! The host name doesn't
       need  to  be  part  of  the  domain  specified  in  <domain-name>.  See
       avahi.hosts(5) for more information how to publish additional host name
       mappings.

       <port> The IP port number the service listens on.

       <txt-record> DNS-SD TXT record data.
