Accessing Apple TV from guest VLAN

[SVDB]

Hi,

I have a hybrid network setup with a FortiGate firewall (60 F) and Ubiquiti UniFi access points. I've configured two VLANs in FortiGate: one for guests and one for the main network. The Apple TV is connected to the main VLAN, but users on the guest VLAN are unable to see or mirror content to it. How can I enable communication between the guest VLAN and the Apple TV on the main VLAN so that users on the guest network can connect to the Apple TV?

Thanks!

Hello @SVDB ,

This might require you to configure some multicast policies, Kindly review the below two articles to achieve this:

Adding to what @rishab444 mentioned, since it sounds like you have these VLANs defined on your FortiGate, and thus have policies defined for traffic between the two, I'd review the following article to ensure you also have the appropriate ports allowed as well.
