DESCRIPTION
       Browse for mDNS/DNS-SD network services and browsing domains using the Avahi daemon.

OPTIONS
       Specify	a  DNS-SD  service type (e.g. _http._tcp) to browse for on the command line, or -a to browse
       for all available service types. Items that appear on the network are prefixed with "+",	 items	that
       disappear  are  prefixed	 with  "-". If --resolve is passed items that are resolved are prefixed with
       "=".

       -a | --all
	      Browse for all service types registered on the LAN, not just the one specified on the  command
	      line.

       -D | --browse-domains
	      Browse for browsing domains instead for services. avahi-browse-domains is equivalent to avahi-
	      browse --browse-domains

       -d | --domain= DOMAIN
	      Browse  in  the  specified domain. If omitted avahi-browse will browse in the default browsing
	      domain (usually: local)

       -v | --verbose
	      Enable verbose mode.

       -t | --terminate
	      Terminate after dumping a more or less complete list.

       -c | --cache
	      Terminate after dumping all entries available in the cache.

       -l | --ignore-local
	      Ignore local services, show only remote services.

       -r | --resolve
	      Automatically resolve services found.

       -f | --no-fail
	      Don't fail if the daemon is not found running. Instead, wait until it appears. If	 it  discon‐
	      nects, try to reconnect.

       -p | --parsable
	      Make  output  easily  parsable  for usage in scripts. If enabled fields are separated by semi‐
	      colons (;), service names are escaped. It is recommended to combine this with --no-db-lookup.

       -k | --no-db-lookup
	      Don't lookup services types in service type database.

       -b | --dump-db
	      Dump the service type database (may be combined with -k)

       -h | --help
	      Show help.

       -V | --version
	      Show version information.
