SRX5308 - DLNA multicast over VLAN
Hi,
I'm modifying my network to split home & pro networks.
When all was on the same subnet, all was OK.
Today we have :
Pro : 172.20.0.0/16 on port 1 of the SRX5308
home : 172.21.0.0/24 on port 2 of the SRX5308
Inter VLAN routing is enabled.
My SmartTV (Home LAN) can access NAS (Pro LAN) using played history. In this case, it show that IP communication is working.
But when I look from my TV for the NAS in the neighbourhood, it doesn't see anything.
I think, it's a DLNA multicast problem because packets are not 'jumping' to the Pro LAN.
We're already making some tests with Netgear Support.
Does somebody already make this configuration work ?
Thanks,
Vincent

- If you can ping across the subnet with Inter Vlan enabled then sounds like there might be some protocol not passing by.
I think this somewhat kinda same issues with people trying via VPN tunnel to have DLNA support too.
I would contact support for trouble ticket and see what they say. You probably need to fight thought to get hold of Level3 support get some validation:) - Hi,
I think you're right. I've seen this from another website (http://www.avsforum.com/t/1252633/dlna-server-on-different-subnet-through-router) :
"Your problem is that uPnP uses multicasting for discovery, but your routers do not support multicasting, so your devices can only find other devices on the same network. The broadcast domain for the multicast announcements is being restricted to a single subnet, because your router(s) don't know how to forward the multicasts to the other attached network(s)."
So the question is : will the SRX5308 be able to multicast... - Confirm with support
