Ubiquiti UniFi - mDNS across VLANs (Multicast DNS/avahi/bonjour/airplay)

[bobbydini]

SSDP forwarding (with TTL incrementing) and multicast routing across site magic group would be amazing

Have you done any testing with Sonos speakers? I'm about 2 months away from setting up a new Unifi network with UDM-SE and trying to plan my VLAN strategy.

Hi d oyou need a network controller on gateway for MDNS, i have a scenario were at one school with unifi AP's and unifi switches were mdns does not work yet at another school with Aruba switches and unifi APs it does work, this is both in relation to the guest portal appearing and asking for vouchers. Also on the network tab on the cloud key/controller for the school that does not work it does not show or give me the option to add the vlan for the guest wifi? yet on another site on the controller it does?

Great video! How it's possible that I've the mDNS option disabled, an Apple TV 4K on IoT VLAN, a MacBook Pro on another VLAN and it still able to see the Apple TV and AirPlay to it?

This info is already outdated it seems. Many of these settings are no longer supported.

Can we expect the same results when you have third party firewall instead of unifi?

For Mikrotik can use mDNS settings?

How to please.

is it possible to allow mdns only for several devices?
I've got 2 vlans with it's own apple tvs etc, but only one airprint printer. Just want to access the printer out of all vlans without seeing the other vlans apple tv.... drives me crazy :D

Got the normal UDM^^

Hi, I have a similar set-up to the last case you presentet. PfSense + third party managed switch + Unifi AP using unifi network application ( the multicast is checked). I have the avahi daemon package installed on PfSense with the default LAN + an IOT VLan. The firewall rules are from the LAN to access everything and IOT can access everything except the LAN. I am able to ping the devices that are on the IOT wifi from the Default wifi but no matter what I try the cast functionality does not work when trying to cast from Default to IOT. Any suggestions? Thank you!

Thank you for another great video! I work for a school district which is composed of three different campuses, we’ve deployed the two UXG-Pros and one UDM Pro among these three campuses (no site-to-site VPN is configured yet). Currently we are using simple WPA2 personal password only authentication for both the “Teacher” and “Student” WiFi networks. What would be the best authentication method other than simply giving out password on the Unifi ecosystem. We have about 200 Macbooks and 200 HP Chromes under the “Teacher” network. Had you already have a video for that? If not, could you please help me with this? Giving out WiFi password is pretty bad practice even if we don’t have any local server inside the network. Any help is very much appreciated!

I really wish ubiquiti would stop changing the damn UI layouts. ffs.
