Multicast DNS gateway

The router can function as a multicast DNS (mDNS) gateway to allow devices and services
to be shared across different VLANs and subnets on the LAN.
Shared devices can include printers and scanners, and services can include Airplay,
Chromecast, and Apple Filing Protocol (AFP).
For example, if a group of wired computers are on VLAN 20 and a printer is on VLAN 1,
an mDNS gateway policy can make the printer available to the computers. Or, if a
meeting participant wants to use a phone connected to a WiFi network on VLAN 20 to
cast a presentation to a large-screen device connected to a WiFi network on VLAN 30,
another mDNS gateway policy can make this possible. The mDNS settings override
client isolation and network isolation settings (see Change the client isolation or network
isolation for a VLAN profile on page 79).
Note: For the mDNS feature, the router and satellites are considered a single system.
A satellite cannot forward mDNS packets if the packets do not pass through the router.
The mDNS packets must pass through the router, which functions as the mDNS gateway.

Enable the multicast DNS gateway and add a policy

After you enable the multicast DNS (mDNS) gateway and add a policy, the router can
automatically discover devices and services that can be shared. The policy forms a
bridge between the following two VLANs:
• Source VLAN: The VLAN that includes shared devices or services as members. For
example, the type of shared device can be printer and can apply to all printers on
