The good test again, now in two parts.
With minor changes and additional information.
Part one:
sudo apt install tshark
Part two:
sudo tshark -f 'port 5353 or icmp or arp' -N dnt &
ping -c 4 whatever.local
kill %1
Part one installs a network sniffer, it diagnostic software for
computer networking challenges, it shows what happens on the wire.
(On wireless network, it shows what happens in the ether.)
Part two is the interest part. It is "the intended ping" that
stops after a count of 4 ping attempts. Before the ping is start,
is `tshark` started in the background. It watches all network traffic
but the filter makes it showing only mDNS, ping related packets
and Address Resolution Protocol packages. The `kill %1` will stop
the first background job, most likely the tshark process.
Please be warned that there will much output on the terminal, it will
be hard to type the `ping -c 4 whatever.local` and `kill %1`.
