Hey all,

 

Noob question. I created serveral VLANs and using a EAP235/245 for wifi. All VLANs are working and not able to cast.

 

setup:

Admin = No VLAN

Adults = 10

Kids = 20

IoT = 30

Guest = 40

 

 

When I'm on the Admin Wifi, I can cast to all the devices on IoT VLAN. When I choose any other VLAN, Chromecast goes in circle. Is there a way to set up a protocol for them to speak and also keep the VLANs secure. 

 

The objective of the VLANs is to ensure what ever the kids do on the internet, doesn't put the adults PC's at risk. 

 

Thanks for any guidance or help in advance

@Eskaycee 

Not sure what is the current issue.

 

VLAN is used to separate the network into different part. And they are not able to communicate to each other.

And this function usually need to configured with another Switch, if you just set multi-VLAN on EAP, some VLANs might not able to get internet access.

 

Like this example from TP-Link, this example has 4 VLANs, and they can only access to its related VLAN resources, and they can all get access to the internet through internet gateway router.

Just striving to develop myself while helping others.

I don't think tplink supports any type of mDNS reflector/repeater which is needed to get chromecast to work across VLANs.

Thanks for the link, as per the link everything is set to be segregated. 

 

I'm going to try this following link as a solution and see if it doesn't open up holes in the VLANs

When doing my research, I notice that too. Hopefully there's an alternative solution
