But don't do anything with multicast on my network, and normally have igmp snooping enabled on my core switch to block the traffic - because on my network its just noise that I don't need to see.īut if devices are assigned statically - I don't see why they wouldn't work just because your gateway is not there. I am going verify with a wireless laptop when I get home, I run the same sort of setup - but old linksys router running tomato as my AP. I would really check to see if your wireless clients are seeing this traffic sent to this sort of address? Notice in your sniff - that multicast is sent to mac of 01: which is correct its a multicast, so mac would first have to end in 1 to say hey I am multicast. What server is not starting your linux box? When the pfsense is unplugged? That makes little sense, why would it not start just because its gateway is not available - does it need the internet for something to start, dns maybe? Now I would assume your dns points to your pfsense. 0.1Īnd meaningless info is your tp-link IP for management of wireless is. Now your linux box is set how? dhcp or static? And its address is 192.168.0.? with a gateway of. ![]() So your TV is at 192.16.0.106 and wireless, and this is how? Static? With gateway of. 0.1 address as the default gateway to get to the internet. So I take it this is the IP of your lan inteface on your wan. So your pfsense is on 192.168.0.1 on its LAN, your choice of default gateway a bit confusing there - lan interfaces would not have a gateway set. Then wireless your TV and other clients connect to your tp-link which is being used as switch and wireless AP. Internet – pfsense (lan) - (lan)tp-link(lan)- linuxserver What? So the way I am picturing your setup "with a static IP set through the TP-Link" I also just noticed that when I restarted the DLNA server, I saw a few packets fly by that said "192.168.0.101 192.168.0.106 Destination Unreachable (Host administratively prohibited). The TP-Link also had UPnP enabled as well. The funny thing is when I was just using the TP-Link router (no pfSense), the DLNA server worked just fine, the TV was discovered, and I could stream all day with no issues. I've attached a screenshot of that as well. Anything having to do with the TP-Link's firewall is disabled. I also saw a lot of broadcast packets from the TV itself saying "Who has 192.168.0.1? Tell 192.168.0.106". I can't get access to either of the wireless machines until tomorrow though, so if I need to get access to wi-fi for further testing, it'll have to wait. I ran a Wireshark capture from Fedora, and I got the SSDP packet like your screenshot above shows (I've attached my own screenshot). I wold fire up capture on your linux box - are you seeing this kind of traffic from your TV? Is your server sending this kind of traffic out - is it being seen on the wireless network? But all wired and turned off igmp on my switch, normally its on and don't see this traffic So for example here is packet from one of my directv dvrs, seeing this on my desktop. Would explain why they can not find each other. This could cause some issues over wireless could it not? I would do a sniff at the devices to see, do you see this multicast traffic on your linux box from your TV? From a different wireless client do you see the SSDP going out from your linux box? Pretty sure they discover each other via traffic port 1900 and 239.255.255.250 (multicast address) So, does anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong here? Thanks in advance DLNA uses UPnP and SSDP correct - part of this is multicast is it not? You sure your not blocking multicast at the switch level with say IGMP snooping? The pfSense router is set up with a default gateway of 192.168.0.1, and the TP-Link at 192.168.0.2. ![]() The only other firewall rule I have other than the defaults is the one I had to set up to force the traffic through my OpenVPN tunnel (I use an existing VPN provider, and I suspect this rule may be the issue). ![]() I'm using pfSense now as the main network router and using the TP-Link only as a switch and wireless AP.Įverything else works fine, and all clients can access the internet (including the TV). Now I'm trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong. However, when I went to try and set up PS3 Media Server (a DLNA-compatible streaming server) for my Samsung Smart TV, the software reports "No renderers found", and the TV (using Samsung's AllShare DLNA software) reports that "No devices were found". Today I decided I would just use my old TP-Link Wireless-N router as just an access point and switch. I'm completely new to pfSense, and so far have everything mostly working. I hope I'm posting this in the right forum.
