GS728TXP (S3300-28X-PoE+) EOL Bonjour/mDNS issue

Hi:

 

Recently got a project relate with EOL switch S3300 for mDNS service.

 

It seems mDNS didn't run through uplink to other switches.

 

I googled and found there seems to be a firmware 6.6.4.29 solved this issue, but not been released.

 

https://community.netgear.com/t5/Plus-and-Smart-Switches-Forum/GS728TXP-S3300-28X-PoE-EOL-Replacement/m-p/2297797

 

I wonder if anyone can share this version ?

 

or any alternative way to configure for mDNS 224.0.0.251 to go through uplink to other switches ?

 

Currently IGMP snooping is enabled for IPTV channels and only 1 flat VLAN.

 

Sincerely,

 

Billy Lee

    As the community is unable to reply here (and the Netgear reps tend to stay the same, or simply fail to locate or allocate internal resources): Open a ticket on https://www.netgear.com/about/contact-us/ - call (or email) them, whatever is available in your market. Sad but true.

      ReneD DavidGo Can this .29 build be made available on all S3300 models: S3300-28X (GS728TX), S3300-28X-PoE+ (GS728TXP), S3300-52X (GS752TX), and S3300-52X-PoE+ (GS752TXP) - so it will be available in the future on https://netgear.com/support please?

        Hi

         

        Just upgrade 2 of switches to test.

         

        Found ineresting issue that it does forward mDNS now to uplink, but only for ipv6 address, not for ipv4 mDNS multicast.

         

        Current setup is flat VLAN 1, with IGMP snooping ENABLE/check IGMP header ENABLE.

         

        No Quierier or mRoute enabled.

         

        Is there any setting is required to pass ipv4 mDNS 224.0.0.251 multicast to uplink ?

         

        Sincerely,

  • Hello ReneD BillyLee ,

     

    I am currently facing the same problem with one GS752TXPv3 and one GS728TXPv3 running 6.2.1.22

    The download link given by ReneD has expired.

     

    Can anyone share the firmware please ?

    Thanks !
