mDNS (Multicast DNS) is a protocol that allows devices on the same local network to resolve hostnames without relying on a central DNS server. It operates using multicast to broadcast queries and responses to all devices within the local subnet. mDNS is commonly used for device discovery in home or small office networks, enabling services like printers and smart devices to be found easily.

In this video, I'll cover everything you need to know about enabling mDNS on MikroTik devices to allow communication across different networks.

Here's what you'll learn:
Introduction to DNS vs mDNS
How mDNS Works in a Local Network
Step-by-step lab using a MikroTik device and multiple networks.
Testing Device Discovery Across Networks
Verify that devices in different networks can communicate and discover each other.

By the end of this tutorial, you’ll have a fully working mDNS setup with the ability to discover devices without the need for a central DNS server.
