      Hi. I've connected router lan to my pfsense 2.6 wan witch static ip.
      I want to do a simple bridge to pass multicast traffic "wan-opt1" being opt1 a physical interface.
      I thought that, only bridging and any - any firewall rule was enough to pass all traffic if pc is asking for multicast udp packets.
      But i cannot pass these packets. Do i really need igmp proxy to do that?
      Thank you

      ont - Asus rt-ac68u -> untagged packets and multicast -> pfsense (wan) -> stb or pc (opt1)
      Don't mind security in this interface.

        You also need to enable IP Options on the pass rules:
