Comment on greenery-beacon: Small and standalone mDNS responder powered by the Traefik API.

I guess this can be useful when you can’t change DNS on the local router.
But wouldn’t announcing *.local.domain for the server that Traefik runs on accomplish the same?

Totally. It’s even useful if you can change DNS, because it allows you to quickly throw something behind Traefik and access it right away. It’s like a lab convenience tool, that allows you to skip IPs and just use names without much effort.
I’m not sure mDNS allows you to publish *.local. And otoh you might want two of these servers :)

You’re right I don’t think it can, can only advertise explicit labels.
