+
+ <para>DNS-SD setup is performed by
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-resolved</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>The main network service file must have the extension <filename>.dnssd</filename>; other
+ extensions are ignored.</para>
+
+ <para>The <filename>.dnssd</filename> files are read from the files located in the system
+ network directory <filename>/usr/lib/systemd/dnssd</filename>, the volatile runtime network
+ directory <filename>/run/systemd/dnssd</filename> and the local administration network
+ directory <filename>/etc/systemd/dnssd</filename>. All configuration files are collectively
+ sorted and processed in lexical order, regardless of the directories in which they live.
+ However, files with identical filenames replace each other. Files in <filename>/etc</filename>
+ have the highest priority, files in <filename>/run</filename> take precedence over files with
+ the same name in <filename>/usr/lib</filename>. This can be used to override a system-supplied
+ configuration file with a local file if needed.</para>
+
+ <para>Along with the network service file <filename>foo.dnssd</filename>, a "drop-in" directory
+ <filename>foo.dnssd.d/</filename> may exist. All files with the suffix
+ <literal>.conf</literal> from this directory will be parsed after the file itself is
+ parsed. This is useful to alter or add configuration settings, without having to modify the main
+ configuration file. Each drop-in file must have appropriate section headers.</para>
+
+ <para>In addition to <filename>/etc/systemd/dnssd</filename>, drop-in <literal>.d</literal>
+ directories can be placed in <filename>/usr/lib/systemd/dnssd</filename> or
+ <filename>/run/systemd/dnssd</filename> directories. Drop-in files in
+ <filename>/etc</filename> take precedence over those in <filename>/run</filename> which in turn
+ take precedence over those in <filename>/usr/lib</filename>. Drop-in files under any of these
+ directories take precedence over the main network service file wherever located. (Of course, since
+ <filename>/run</filename> is temporary and <filename>/usr/lib</filename> is for vendors, it is
+ unlikely drop-ins should be used in either of those places.)</para>
