Using either hybrid dnssd, or else stateful dnssd. So, https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-tldm-simple-homenet-naming-00 <https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-tldm-simple-homenet-naming-00> https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-dnssd-hybrid-06 <https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-dnssd-hybrid-06> https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-lemon-stateful-dnssd-00 <https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-lemon-stateful-dnssd-00> The short answer is that names are discovered on the local wire using Multicast DNS (RFC 6762) and published using DNS Service Discovery (RFC 6763). The former is a link-local protocol; the latter is the DNS wire protocol, with some special features. The drafts I linked to talk about that in detail, but it's a lot of reading. I think the first one gives you a decent sketch, but it's a -00, so it could probably be a lot more clear.
