Update: Since we switched away from using IPv4 link-local addressing on USB gadget Ethernet with the official Nerves systems, mDNS has been work very well. If anyone else runs into this and is running Nerves, definitely verify that you're not using link-local addresses on the connection.

@mobileoverlord @tmecklem Do either you have anything to add? I'm trying to capture the conversation on July 12th regarding this issue since others are seeing it as well.
from mdns.
That captures it pretty well. I'm willing to do more investigation or capture logs if needed. I'm working with this (and experiencing it) quite a bit now.
from mdns.
Believe it or not, I'm not sure that I'm seeing it on Linux. Either that or I'm getting really lucky.
from mdns.
I'm wondering if you guys can capture the IP address of the node when it's not working and when it is working. There's a TTL setting for the IP registration, I'm wondering if there may be a cache issue from previous deployment attempts.
I'm on Linux as well and will start investigating. The "one" test for the mDNS library "should" fail if this was an issue, but that does run locally, so maybe certain routers are at fault.
from mdns.
@tmecklem could you run the mix test
in you local dev environment?
from mdns.
I've updated the tests to be a bit more thorough

Ok, to run mDNS locally on OSX you need to kill the default mDNS server running locally.
In OS X, you can disable it by opening terminal and typing the following:
launchctl unload /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.mDNSResponder.plist
launchctl unload /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.mDNSResponderHelper.plist
from mdns.
The test will probably still not work, as the address function is returning your ipv6 address, and I specifically look for the ipv4. Will try to fix.
from mdns.
Address function in the test is updated to return ipv4 addresses

I'm one of the others seeing something similar, except I haven't been able to contact the device at all. This in Linux (Ubuntu 16.10). Here's my mix test

Odd that a hostname lookup would fail in .005 seconds. The mDNS server doesn't even log the event on my test for .1 seconds.

excellent, thank you for testing this. hopefully that resolves your network deployment tests as well.
I always run an LTS version of Ubuntu, for the record.
from mdns.
Yeah, sticking with LTS is probably the smarter thing to do :).
Unfortunately still unable to contact the device.
from mdns.
can you run ping nerves.local
or whatever the hostname is set to for the device.
are you sure the device is on the network?
Is this rpi0w?
from mdns.
It's a BeagleBone black, running a port of "gadget mode" from the rpi0. So it's supposed to set up a connection over the USB interface.
I'm unable to ping the BBB from linux. Interestingly, I tried the same device with my mac at home, and it worked. The first ping packet always times out, but after that it's good. So the issue on linux might be unrelated.
from mdns.
@aadavids Hmm... Could you try a couple things on Linux? First, could you check that the virtual Ethernet interface that shows up on Linux is getting assigned a link local IP address? For example, run ifconfig -a
in a terminal and look for a 169.254.0.0/16 address . The next thing to try is to run wireshark and capture all of the traffic on the virtual Ethernet interface. Wireshark labels packets, so you should see some mDNS packets go through. Or, maybe this is another Ubuntu 16.10 bug?
from mdns.
Sorry, I won't have that much time to test things until Monday, but here's the network config:
enp0s20f0u1: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet6 fe80::3d1b:5fa7:7b82:5256 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x20<link>
ether 1a:52:97:d4:b5:03 txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet)
RX packets 2 bytes 80 (80.0 B)
RX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 frame 0
TX packets 45 bytes 6338 (6.3 KB)
TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0
So it looks like it's getting an ipv6 address?
from mdns.
Hmm, if the virtual interface is only getting an ipv6 address, that could be an issue. I haven't tested mDNS with ipv6 and I'm pretty sure the rpi0 firmware only uses ipv4 as well.
from mdns.
I had thought that IPv4 link local addresses would be assigned by default unless they were explicitly disabled. It may be that the system is waiting for DHCP to time out before assigning an address?
Also, regarding rpi0 firmware only using ipv4, that's sadly correct. For some reason I had thought that it just wasn't used. Not that it will change much since applications need to support it, but I'll start moving it into the systems: nerves-project/nerves_system_rpi0#19.
from mdns.
I captured some of the traffic on the virtual Ethernet interface and I can see MDNS packets. I also tried to ping the device a couple times while wireshark was running. mdns.pcapng.tar.gz
So then I guess the issue seems to be that the virtual Ethernet interface is getting an ipv6 address?
from mdns.
