A reflector, in the context of computer networking, refers to a device or software that receives incoming network traffic and then reflects or forwards it to another destination. It essentially acts as a mirror, redirecting packets from one location to another.
In the specific context of mDNS (Multicast DNS), a reflector is a component that enables mDNS packets to be forwarded between different VLANs or network segments. This allows devices in separate VLANs to discover and communicate with each other using mDNS.
The purpose of an mDNS reflector is to extend the reach of mDNS services across VLAN boundaries, enabling devices on different VLANs to discover and interact with each other as if they were on the same local network.
