Hi Guys,
I have a wireless network implemented and working in the building with Access point and controller 4404
Now I received a requirement to use "All share samsung software" to controll TV on wireless .
So as per the requirement I connect the TV to SSID and connect my Laptop/iphone to same SID and then I should be able to present pictures or vedios on my
pc/iphone on the TV using the all share software.Will this work as it is (currently not working ) or Do I need to make any config change on controller or AP to make this work .
Please advice.

Might be the same thing that Apple devices require.... multicast. Might want to follow this guide to setup multicast if not yet enabled.

Thanks Scott ,
Never thought about multicast part , Let me check the possibilty of configuring it and will update you all.

You can try to just enable broadcast forwarding to see if that helps first.

Yes Scott , I was about ask you that option first before multicast
From the reference link
2> Unicast
Unicast is kind of obselete and its just a broadcast and no extra configs are need to be done apart from enabling this mode on the WLC
So what should be specifically configured to enable the broadcast forwarding , I have WLC 4404.
Is the change to be done only on the WLC , and does this change will have any impact on the current setup
Thanks

It shouldn't impact the current environment. I have clients (hospitals) that had to enable that for certain devices to be able to see each other.

Hi Scott Fella,
Actually I dint not try the option which have specfied as I dont want to distrub the current infra.
But this time the requirement was achieved by using the adhoc option on the windows 7 to talk to the TV (ad hoc).
If they are not happy with that , may be I have to try the one you specified.
Thanks
