Usage guidelines

In an enterprise network, inter-subnet mDNS communication is required for mDNS endpoint devices to access services on different subnets. To meet the requirement, enable mDNS relay on subnets. The mDNS relay learns mDNS service information on these subnets and unicasts it to the mDNS gateway for registration. When an mDNS endpoint device sends a multicast service query to the mDNS relay, the relay converts the query into a unicast packet and forwards it to the mDNS gateway.

The mDNS relay feature takes effect only after you specify the mDNS gateway address on the mDNS relay.

Examples

# Enable mDNS relay in VLAN 2.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] vlan 2

[Sysname-vlan2] mdns relay enable

# Enable mDNS relay in VSI vsi1.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] vsi vsi1

[Sysname-vsi-vsi1] mdns relay enable

mdns relay gateway ip

mdns relay gateway ip

Use mdns relay gateway ip to specify the mDNS gateway address on the mDNS relay.

Use undo mdns relay gateway ip to restore the default.

Syntax

mdns relay gateway ip ip-address [ vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ]

undo mdns relay gateway ip

Default

No mDNS gateway address is specified on the mDNS relay.

Parameters

ip-address: Specifies the IP address of the mDNS gateway, in dotted decimal notation.

vpn-instance vpn-instance-name: Specifies the MPLS L3VPN instance to which the IP address of the mDNS gateway belongs. The vpn-instance-name argument represents the VPN instance name, a case-sensitive string of 1 to 31 characters. If the mDNS gateway is on the public network, do not specify this option.

Usage guidelines

After receiving an mDNS query from an mDNS endpoint device, the mDNS relay replaces the multicast destination address with the specified mDNS gateway address and unicasts the query to the mDNS gateway. When receiving the response from the gateway, the mDNS relay multicasts it in the VLAN or VSI where the requesting mDNS endpoint resides. The requesting endpoint device can then receive the response and other mDNS endpoint devices can learn and update the service information.

If you execute this command multiple times, the most recent configuration takes effect.

Examples

# Specify 1.1.1.1 as the mDNS gateway address on the mDNS relay.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] mdns relay gateway ip 1.1.1.1

mdns relay probe interval

Use mdns relay probe interval to enable periodic probing on the mDNS relay and set the probe interval.

Use undo mdns relay probe interval to disable periodic probing on the mDNS relay.

Syntax

mdns relay probe interval interval

undo mdns relay probe interval

Default

Periodic probing is disabled on the mDNS relay.

Parameters

interval: Specifies a probe interval in seconds. The value range is 60 to 38400.

Usage guidelines

This feature enables the mDNS relay to send mDNS probe queries within an mDNS relay-enabled VLAN or VSI at intervals. Each mDNS service provider sends a response to the mDNS relay after receiving the query. The mDNS relay then unicasts the responses to the mDNS gateway. The mDNS gateway can learn the latest service information of all mDNS service providers in the network in a timely manner.

If you execute this command multiple times, the most recent configuration takes effect.

Examples

# Enable mDNS relay periodic probing in VLAN 2 and set the probe interval to 100 seconds.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] vlan 2

[Sysname-vlan2] mdns relay probe interval 100

# Enable mDNS relay periodic probing in VSI vsi1 and set the probe interval to 100 seconds.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] vsi vs1

[Sysname-vsi-vsi1] mdns relay probe interval 100

Related commands

display mdns relay

mdns relay source ip

Use mdns relay source ip to specify the source IP address for mDNS packets sent by the mDNS relay.

Use undo mdns relay source ip to restore the default.

Syntax

mdns relay source ip { ip-address | interface interface-type interface-number }

undo mdns relay source ip

Default

The mDNS relay encapsulates source IP addresses for packets as follows:

·     For responses destined for endpoint devices and probe queries within a VLAN or VSI, the default source IP address is the IP address of the VLAN interface or VSI interface.

·     For multicast packets destined for the gateway, the default source IP address is the IP address of the packet output interface on the mDNS relay.

Parameters

ip-address: Specifies the source IP address of mDNS packets, in the decimal notation format.

interface interface-type interface-number: Specifies an interface by its type and number. The primary IP address of the specified interface is used as the source IP address of mDNS packets.

Usage guidelines

For responses destined for endpoint devices and probe queries within a VLAN or VSI, the default source IP address is the IP address of the VLAN interface or VSI interface. If no IP address is configured for the VLAN interface or VSI interface, the mDNS relay cannot send out the queries.

If the mDNS relay is connected to a large number of VLANs or VSIs, configuring an IP address to each VLAN interface or VSI interface wastes IP address resources. You can use this command to specify a specific IP address for the mDNS relay to use.

Make sure the specified source address is on the relay and has a reachable route to the mDNS gateway. If these requirements are not met, the mDNS relay cannot receive responses.

As a best practice, specify the interface connecting to the mDNS gateway in the command.

Examples

# Specify 1.1.1.1 as the source IP address for mDNS packets in VLAN 2.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] vlan 2

[Sysname-vlan2] mdns relay source ip 1.1.1.1

# Specify the IP address of GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 as the source IP address for mDNS packets in VSI vsi1.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] vsi vsi1

[Sysname-vsi-vsi1] mdns relay source ip interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1
