  • Airprint across VLANS?
    1 project | /r/firewalla | 23 Dec 2021
    Airprint uses Zeroconf/Bonjour, and this protocol is unrouted (i.e. only works on the local subnet), unfortunately it doesn’t work over different vlans. There’s a hack-ish way to get around it (“Bonjour reflection”, https://github.com/Gandem/bonjour-reflector ) you can try that.
  • Recently I broke off my IoT traffic and I want to share my new network setup.

    Avahi is nifty for that however bonjour-reflector is on my list of things to play with for a little more fine-grained control over what people and devices are able to see on which network. For example, my guest wi-fi shouldn't be able to even see the chromecast in my bedroom. Even if firewall rules already prevent them from talking to it.
  • So we have 32 refrigerators with Wi-Fi the bosses say must be connected to the network. But the app must access through the local netowrk.

    Find out more about the protocols in use. It might be mDNS/bonjour. At that point you can implement a reflector, for example bonjour-reflector https://github.com/Gandem/bonjour-reflector
  • Echo and other devices on a separate network?
    1 project | /r/PFSENSE | 4 Jan 2021
    You also will likely will have to enable Avahi, which at least on pfsense will echo everything between the interfaces it is enabled on. This isn't always desirable, there is some limited filtering possible in a more contemporary version of Avahi. bonjour-reflector is on my list of things to play with on a rainy day which should give me the granularity to expose one chromecast to my guest network and leave the rest locked up.
