Scan the local network
mdns-scanner
说明
mdns-scanner is a terminal UI application that scans the local network for active hosts and resolves their IP addresses to multicast DNS (mDNS) hostnames or DNS-SD service instances. It enumerates non-loopback network interfaces, performs ARP/ICMP-based host discovery, then issues mDNS queries on the 224.0.0.251 (IPv4) and ff02::fb (IPv6) link-local multicast groups on UDP port 5353. The TUI displays discovered hosts in a navigable list with their IP addresses and any resolved **\*.local** hostnames or service records, making it useful for finding printers, Chromecasts, Apple devices, HomeKit accessories, and other Bonjour/Avahi-aware hardware on a LAN.
