Application code does not need to do this (and should not). The Bonjour
APIs handle network changes for you automatically.

Nothing should happen.
No new service has appeared. No service has disappeared.
All that's happened is that a service has changed address, but it's still
there.
You don't care what address a service has until you resolve it.
Try using "dns-sd -L" if you want to resolve a service to host:port, and
"dns-sd -Q" to resolve a hostname to its IP address.
