Hello and thank you in advance.
I have created an mDNS rule to enable access from my main LAN (192.168.0.1/24) to my office VLAN (192.168.20.1/24) and obviously SMB is enabled in the Bonjour Service.
After spending hours configuring the Windows firewall settings, I am now able to ping the Windows machines (located in the office VLAN) from my Windows PC in the main LAN, but I can't access to my smb folder.
I can successfully access my Epson printer (https) and ping every device in my office VLAN from my main LAN. However, it seems that the issue may lie with the Windows machines themselves.
Do you have any ideas on how I can access shared folders on my office VLAN from my main LAN?
I have created ACL rules to permit access from the main VLAN to the office VLAN and to restrict the office VLAN's access to other VLANs. Could this possibly be the source of the problem?
Thank you very much!
ER605 v1.0
Firmware 1.3.0
EDIT: the office vlan has the following DHCP Range 192.168.20.100 - 192.168.20.200
The two windows machine are outside this range (192.168.20.98 and 192.168.20.99)

Hi @umbertodm
Thanks for posting in our business forum.
Read again your issue. I am not sure what do you need to access. But you should at least make sure you have enough privileges to access. Or a server available.
Since you have confirmed that mDNS and other stuff work, it falls back to the Windows system. Suggest you search it online for some further tips.
I used to face something similar with the Windows system. It took me some time to troubleshoot. You should use the error code to search for related tips or suggestions.
