NAME
avahi-resolve - Resolve one or more mDNS/DNS host name(s) to IP address(es) (and vice versa) using the Avahi daemon

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION
Resolve one or more mDNS/DNS host name(s) to IP address(es) (and vice versa) using the Avahi daemon.

OPTIONS
When passing -n, specify one or more fully qualified mDNS/DNS host name(s) (e.g. "foo.local") to resolve into IP addresses on the command line. When passing -a, specify one or more IP addresses to resolve into host names. When enable-wide-area is set to yes in avahi-daemon.conf(5), reverse lookups will go over unicast DNS first and fallback to mDNS. avahi-resolve-host-name is equivalent to avahi-resolve --name. avahi-resolve-address is equivalent to avahi-resolve --address.

-n | --name
    Translate one or more fully qualified host names into addresses.

-a | --address
    Translate one or more addresses into fully qualified host names.

-v | --verbose
    Enable verbose mode.

-6  When resolving a host name, look for IPv6 addresses exclusively.

-4  When resolving a host name, look for IPv4 addresses exclusively.

-h | --help
    Show help.

-V | --version
    Show version information.
