The Network
We have set up a dedicated local network with WiFi 6E support in our labs. When working with the Rover, you should be connected to this network.

mDNS tooling
Each Rover gets assigned a dynamic IP, which can change over time. That's why we suggest that you use mDNS hostnames to interface with your Rover. (This is what roverctl uses as well). For example, to ping Rover 7:
# Use mDNS
ping rover07.local
# Instead of this random IP
ping 192.168.0.195
For macOS users, mDNS resolutions are handled by Apple's bonjour service. If you are running Linux and  mDNS lookups fail for you, you might need to install additional software for your system. The most common package for this is Avahi which can be installed by:
# Debian/Ubuntu
sudo apt install avahi-daemon avahi-utils
# Fedora/RHEL
sudo dnf install avahi avahi-tools
