I like the ability to
ping somehostname
on the local network and have it work (where ping can be any command or browser). That's easy with DHCP+DNS, and either impossible or amazingly ugly with DLAAC.
- 9dev 6mo agoIt’s a no-brainer with SLAAC and mDNS, which is what pretty much all home routers do out of the box.
- yjftsjthsd-h 6mo agoThat's an extra service or two running on every device with extra configuration, and... Maybe it's more reliable now? I vaguely recall having a bad time. What does the router do out of the box, or at all, for mdns? Isn't it a p2p service?
