Hiya Folks I have a quick question.
I run sort of a share house with each person/user having a dedicated vlan and subnet to prevents devices directly talking with each-other without going via utm/xg. I also have a dedicated shared vlan which is used for the community space for devices such as chromecasts in the livingroom and other shared areas.
PROBLEM: Users are unable to cast to chromecast devices without connecting directly to this subnet. Now I assume this is because the discovery protocol is either multicast or broadcast. I would like broadcast/multicasts packets forwarded to other subnets. If this is possible can someone explain how to exactly set this up on either XG and/or UTM? I read the documentation but was not sure exactly how to set this up or if what I am attempting is even possible.
Here is some example data:
10.0.2.0/24 is the community vlan, with chromecast having a ip of 10.0.1.20
Each Person is assigned a /24 subnet after 10.0.2.0. ie: 10.0.3.0/24 10.0.4.0/24 etc etc (9 in total)
I would like the chromecast discovery packets forwarded to the other subnets broadcast domains so that devices can see this device. I of-course than make appropriate firewall rules for any inter-vlan communication.
Is this even possible? I'm fairly knowledgeable with networking but never really went into multicast/broadcast other than when the odd issue popped up at work.
