NAME

6       nutscan_scan_avahi - Scan network for NUT services via mDNS
7

SYNOPSIS

9       #include <nut-scan.h>
10       #include <unistd.h> /* useconds_t */
11
12       nutscan_device_t * nutscan_scan_avahi(useconds_t usec_timeout);
13

DESCRIPTION

15       The nutscan_scan_avahi() function tries to detect the NUT service via
16       mDNS, and its associated devices. It uses the Avahi library to do so.
17
18       You MUST call nutscan_init(3) before using this function.
19
20       This function can query perspective IP addresses using NUT protocol,
21       and in this case it waits up to usec_timeout microseconds before
22       considering an IP address to be unresponsive.
23

RETURN VALUE

25       The nutscan_scan_avahi() function returns a pointer to a
26       nutscan_device_t structure containing all found devices.
27
28       It returns NULL if an error occurs, or if no device is found.
