The software providing host name resolution via Multicast DNS, effectively allowing name resolution by common Unix/Linux programs in the ad-hoc mDNS domain (*.local).  
This software broadcasts mDNS queries on every interface that supports multicasts, thereby allowing name resolution by common Unix/Linux programs in the ad-hoc mDNS domain (*.local). You don't interface with this software, but you need it for an mDNS responder (avahi).
