Description

This article explains the scenario, in the FortiGate firewall where the client is located in one VLAN and the phone server is located in another VLAN.

Scope

FortiOS.

Solution

While making a call from the client to the server, the user could not hear audio. There is already a configured VLAN to VLAN multicast policy but for some reason, it is not working.

As per this scenario, there is already configured multi-cast policy. Make these changes in the firewall and check.

To prevent the TTL for forwarded packets from being changed:

# config system setting
set multicast-ttl-notchange enable
end

To enable multicast forwarding in NAT mode:

# config system setting
set multicast-forward enable
end
