Bonjour version 2.0, released on February 24, 2010, works with Microsoft Windows 2000, 2003, XP, Vista, 7, 8, 8.1, 10, and 11. [8] Systems use it primarily to facilitate the installation, configuration, and use of network printers, and thus it runs from startup.
Apple Mac OS and MS Windows have supported link-local addresses since Windows 98 and Mac OS 8.5 (both released in 1998). [1] Apple released its open-source implementation in the Darwin bootp package. Avahi contains an implementation of IPv4LL in the avahi-autoipd tool. Zero-Conf IP (zcip) [36] BusyBox can embed a simple IPv4LL implementation.
Avahi implements the Apple Zeroconf specification, mDNS, DNS-SD and RFC 3927/IPv4LL. Other implementations include Apple's Bonjour framework (the mDNSResponder component of which is licensed under the Apache License). Avahi provides a set of language bindings (Python, Mono, etc.) and ships with most Linux and BSD distributions.
Tobias Erichsen in 2010 released a Windows implementation of Apple's RTP-MIDI driver. [7] This driver works under XP, Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 10, 32 and 64 bit versions. [8] The driver uses a configuration panel very similar to the Apple's one, and is fully compliant with Apple's implementation.
Multicast DNS (mDNS) is a computer networking protocol that resolves hostnames to IP addresses within small networks that do not include a local name server.It is a zero-configuration service, using essentially the same programming interfaces, packet formats and operating semantics as unicast Domain Name System (DNS).
Boot Camp combines Windows 10 with install scripts to load hardware drivers for the targeted Mac computer. Boot Camp currently supports Windows 10 on a range of Macs dated mid-2012 or newer. [ 9 ] Apple Silicon is not supported due to being ARM-based .
Apple AirPort Express with firmware version 7.4.1 or 7.4.2 [4] Apple AirPort Extreme with firmware version 7.4.1 or 7.4.2 [4] Apple AirPort Time Capsule [4] Apple TV (all generations) HomePod (2018) HomePod mini (2020) Computers running Mac OS X Snow Leopard act as Bonjour sleep proxy servers when Internet sharing is enabled.

RFC 6762 was authored by Apple Inc. employees Stuart Cheshire and Marc Krochmal, and Apple's Bonjour zeroconf networking software implements mDNS. [3] That service will automatically resolve the private IP addresses of link-local Macintosh computers running macOS and mobile devices running iOS if .local is appended to their hostnames.
