Getting Airplay and timemachine working

GuidoCraenen

Hello,

We have a UTm and 2 AP-50 running in our office. We're mostly Apple OS X and iOS based so would like the make airplay and timemachine working. It doesn't now. I could not find a howto to set this or recent answers to this question on the forums. The only thing I could find is to enable ports:

iChat TCP 5297
iChat TCP/UDP 5298
mDNSResponder (Multicast) UDP 5353

Is that enough and where and how to enable this?

I already have a firewall rule:

internal network --> any --> any

So I was under the impression that's enough?

    You say you have 2 x AP50, but the million dollar question is how are they configured?

    The SSID's and the networks they're connected to, how have you set these?  Separate Zone?  Bridge to AP LAN?  VLAN?

    With the Apple stuff, and it's heavy use of Bonjour to auto discover services, this protocol is, by design, limited to it's own broadcast domain.  It cannot, and shouldn't, cross subnets as it creates a storm of traffic.

    Rant aside, there are products that act as Bonjour gateways and repeaters, multicast forwarders, etc.  

    The UTM is not one of these.  If you have a Wireless network sustained by the AP50's and your clients who wish to use the Apple TimeMachine are on a different subnet/network you'll need to flatten your network.

    Hi,

    I have both set to "bridge to AP LAN" and the devices on wlan are getting their IP's from the same dhcp server instance as the lan-based devices. They are all in the same network.

    I have no vlans configured on the AP's. The AP's are AP55C's.
