Specify a DNS-SD service type (e.g. _http._tcp) to browse for on the command line, or -a to browse for
all available service types. Items that appear on the network are prefixed with "+", items that disappear
are prefixed with "-". If --resolve is passed items that are resolved are prefixed with "=".
-a|--all
Browse for all service types registered on the LAN, not just the one specified on the command
line.
-D|--browse-domains

browse --browse-domains

-l|--ignore-local

try to reconnect.
