Question

mDNS Forwarding

From what I understand mDNS discovery (224.0.0.251) cannot be forwarded to seperate subnets. Is there any known workaround that would allow me to forward mDNS discover requests from my internal (192.168.2.0) to my wlan (10.10.80.1). In particular, iTunes usues mDNS to discover our airport express units for remote audio. Thanks for any info! Rick

    You may need to create a multicast policy, check this techdoc: http://kc.forticare.com/default.asp?id=150&SID=&Lang=1

    Thanks for the reply. I had actually read that previously and checked the FortiGate 60A that we are using for the multicast forward option, but FortiOS 3.0 MR3 that we are running does not have the option to enable it.
