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

SYNOPSIS
       avahi-resolve --name host-name ...

       avahi-resolve-host-name host-name ...

       avahi-resolve --address address ...

       avahi-resolve-address address ...

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.
