Link-local Addresses
To use link-local addressing, first set up the proper routes:
route add default dev eth0 metric 99 route add -net 169.254.0.0 netmask 255.255.0.0 dev eth0 metric 99
Then, use avahi-autoipd to discover a valid link-local IP address:
/usr/sbin/avahi-autoipd --daemonize --syslog --wait eth0
Multicast Route
route add -net 224.0.0.0 netmask 240.0.0.0 dev eth0
mDNS
/etc/nsswitch.conf:
hosts: files mdns_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns mdns
