Enabling multicast on a WLC 2106

[simonwynn]

Hi,

I'm rolling out a WLC based wifi solution to replace autonomous access points. System is currently in beta.

I've noticed that I cannot browse windows shares, nor connect to Bonjour enabled printers from Macs unless I enable some multicast and broadcast settings.

Currently I've enabled the global mulitcast and the forwarding broadcasts settings - this seems to fix things. Rather than just guessing are there any other settings I should select?

Simon,

     You'd want to enable multicast > multicast and set a 239.x.x.x address, and enable IGMP snooping

You can also take a look at the following doc on this.

HTH,
