This tool helps Arduino IDE communicate with compatible network-connected boards for tasks like OTA uploads. It detects the addition and removal of these ports on the local network, allowing the IDE to keep the list of available ports updated. This ensures that the port listings, such as those found in the _Tools > Port_ menu and the board selector in the IDE, are up-to-date.
