      I have a virtual pfSense running on my server, connected to 192.168.1.x as WAN and with the internal address of 192.168.6.x. On the inside there is another VM with four Home Assistant instances running in Docker. I use the pfSense to route inbound traffic to the different instances and stop anything inbound that I haven't opened for. Most of my hardware is on the 192.168.1.x network as well, and most of it works without any problems. The only thing I can't get working is the Yamaha YNCA network control.

      From the VM running Home Assistant I can open the web interface of any of my four Yamaha receivers (different zones), 192.168.1.200-204. And again all other hardware on the 192.168.1.x network is working from all the Home Assistant instances. But I am unable to get the Yamaha YNCA control running with the plug-in for Home Assistant. It's not the plug-in or the receivers, because I can connect with a Pi with Home Assistant that's connected directly to the 192.168.1.x network.

      The port for the YNCA control is 50000, and I have a sneaking suspicion that it may be multicast. I installed Avahi after a bit of googling, but it did not help. I'm not even sure that's the correct plug-in for this.

      Can somebody please help me along here?

          @chpalmer Thanks, but that is not the same case. I tried it, but it doesn't work. I think it's because that 's between two VLANs on the same pfSense, I need to get it from WAN to LAN.
