What do I need to do to allow client devices to locally connect to the Hue Bridge over a VLAN? Do I need to configure MDNS? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    You need to setup a multicast policy to allow the SSDP to traverse vlans.  You will also need a firewall policy to allow the clients to talk to the hue bridge as well. 

     

    The multicast policy is hidden by default.  Go to System > Feature Viability > enable Multicast Policy.  Then you can create the policy:
