UPnP/Multicast across different subnets

PhilJ

Hi

Will pfSense allow UPnP/multicast traffic across different networks/subnets? If so, how do I enable this?

Thanks

Phil

Anyone? The main reason for needing this to work is because I have multiple Sonos devices spread across the network.

UPnP should work, so long as they're talking to pfsense's UPnP daemon.

If you just need mDNS, then the Avahi package may help with that.

Otherwise, If the interfaces are bridged, then yes. If they are on different subnets, then no.

Thanks for the info.

They are on different subnets, but I did have a try and played out with firewall rules etc. It did work but seemed a little unstable.

I don't know if you have experience of Sonos kit, but I have a couple of CR200 controllers - only one zone would be listed on the controller, but if I connected my laptop by cable to a switch, then all zones would appear in the software/laptop controller.
