LAN Discovery

Many admins who have tried, reported a local server does not appear on the LAN tab in the steam browser.
Connect using the console command.
If the port is 27015, then you can just use : connect IP
Add the server to the server browser's favourites. If in-game, then go to the legacy browser if applicable to find it. The syntax to use is the same as for the console connection.
In the fn_parms section, add +sv_lan 1 and make sure you replace -ip ${ip} with -ip 0.0.0.0
Make sure your server main port listens to one of these IP or IP ranges: 4242 ; 26900-26905 ; 27015-27020 ; 27215
Make sure your server actually works and is reachable on LAN, otherwise what you need is rather first.
As shows, there might be a possible configuration that fixes the issue, but LinuxGSM devs were not able to reproduce it at the time of writing the doc, so this information is purely experimental and you are welcome to update it or post on the issue if you have useful information to share about it.
Edit your using your files
Change ip="0.0.0.0" to an actual interface IP, for example ip="192.168.1.10" ; this will allow LinuxGSM to and query your server properly.
