The appliance is now reachable at http://vyomi.local:9000/ — no more pasting bridged Multipass IPs into a browser. Hostname resolution uses standard mDNS (Bonjour on macOS, avahi on Linux, native mDNS on Windows 10 1809+) so it works on any local network that doesn't actively block multicast, with zero /etc/hosts modification.

Added

  • cloud-init.yaml now installs avahi-daemon + libnss-mdns, sets the VM hostname to vyomi, patches /etc/nsswitch.conf to query mDNS, and enables the avahi service. A fresh cloud-learn up makes vyomi.local resolvable from the host within seconds of boot.
  • ensure_vyomi_mdns_active() runs on every cloud-learn up and idempotently brings legacy VMs (launched before v1.2.3) up to the same state. Fast no-op (~50 ms) when avahi is already publishing; ~30s one-time fix-up otherwise. Bounded by a 60s wall-clock cap so it can never hang the launcher.
  • print_url_banner() probes vyomi.local:9000/healthz and prefers the hostname URL when reachable. The bridged IP is always shown as a fallback so users on multicast-blocked networks (corporate, some VPNs) still have a copy-pasteable URL.
  • Phase 8 status output now shows both URLs as soon as the VM IP is known, so the user can open either in a browser while the health check is still polling.

Fixed

  • The portal /install page's hero subtitle previously claimed all paths land on http://localhost:9000 — accurate only for Docker Compose. Now the copy distinguishes the Multipass-based paths (Brew/.deb/.rpm/Scoop → http://vyomi.local:9000) from Compose (still http://localhost:9000). The "After install" block has the same fix.
  • Per-method comment examples in install_catalog.py swapped http://192.168.x.x:9000 for http://vyomi.local:9000, matching what the launcher actually prints.

Operational notes

  • Networks that block multicast (corporate switches with IGMP snooping misconfigured, some hotel WiFi, certain VPN clients) will fail mDNS resolution. The launcher's URL banner shows the IP fallback for exactly this case.
  • Linux server installs without libnss-mdns on the HOST won't resolve vyomi.local from that host either — apt install libnss-mdns once on the host and it works. Default on Ubuntu desktop, Fedora, Debian with the standard meta-packages.
  • Windows users on Windows 10 builds older than 1809 (October 2018 Update) need Apple Bonjour Print Services installed, or they should use the IP fallback.
