Hi all,a colleague of mine and myself, we are currently working on a Debian based firewall project (debian-edu-router [1]) where we want to integration some sort of mDNS reflector service.
The demands for this is: We need several different uni-directional/bi-directional mDNS service type filters, applied to different sets of network interfaces.
The settings for this ideally should be configurable via config snippet drop-ins in some conf.d/ subdirectory of /etc/avahi/.
Is this a feature that would be acceptable to the avahi maintainers? If so, we would consider contributing the required changes / improvements.
We are, in parallel, also investigating, whether the mdns-reflector mini service would be a viable solution.
Also, another question: Is a new upstream release of Avahi something that is in near sight? I am asking, because we'd like to see this feature land in Debian testing/unstable in the next 6 months or so (at the latest for Debian 13 in +/- 2.5 - 3 years from now).
Looking forward to feedback, thanks, Mike [1] https://salsa.debian.org/debian-edu/debian-edu-router/ -- DAS-NETZWERKTEAM c\o Technik- und Ökologiezentrum Eckernförde Mike Gabriel, Marienthaler Str. 17, 24340 Eckernförde mobile: +49 (1520) 1976 148 landline: +49 (4351) 850 8940 GnuPG Fingerprint: 9BFB AEE8 6C0A A5FF BF22 0782 9AF4 6B30 2577 1B31 mail: mike.gabr...@das-netzwerkteam.de, http://das-netzwerkteam.de
