No solution yet without having a separate piece of hardware (linux server) connected to all the VLANs that you want the broadcast traffic transversing.
Even then it wasn’t reliable and was slow picking up devices (unlike the bonjour forwarding which works great!)
Any news on looking into this Peplink?
Thank You

Thanks for the feature request. This feature was KIV at the moment since we are rushing for other important features.
Anyway, door still opened. We shall reconsider this in future.

Hi, are there any updates on this? I would like to keep Sonos on my IOT vlan and control it from my primary secure vlan. Alternatively are there any workarounds?
I am new to Peplink (just got my Surf Soho yesterday and have not had a chance to config yet) and pretty much a newb in terms of advanced routing. I found my way here after getting hacked. I was searching for ways to better secure my home network and peplink was suggested more than once. Looking forward to getting my network back on track, I’m sure the forums will be a great resource.

I would love this too! Sonos control across VLANs from iOT to other VLANs

Hi Guys
Any further info on this?
I have been asked for a it many more times.
People don’t understand that AirPlay can work across the VLANs but SONOS can’t
Thanks

Dear peplink engineering team. The last 6 deployments we’ve done for residential customers all had SONOS speakers and its been really really boring to redesign what should have been a deliver-to-site-and-it-works solution that we provide to work with the SONOS products.
In our case we need to be able to support SONOS speakers on the WAN and on a different VLAN (typically one or the other not both) and their control and management by the SONOS app on the client’s handheld devices.
I note that there is a SSDP/uPNP multicast relay utility on github here GitHub - alsmith/multicast-relay: Relay multicast and broadcast packets between interfaces. that looks like it should work.
There is also a post here https://en.community.sonos.com/troubleshooting-228999/multiple-subnets-vlans-and-sonos-workable-clavister-solution-30950 that describes the ports needed as well as the selective Multicast relay required for SONOS discovery.
Please can this be investigated to see if Peplink device might support SONOS forwarding like this in the near future…
Thanks,

My Sonos devices are the only remaining IoT devices still on my internal VLAN because of this requirement. +1 for wanting a solution for this.

I’d love to have this also. We don’t really have a need for VLANs in our office but we use Peplink APs so I was using them previously to segment the network up. But then we found out that employees on the employee network could no longer control the Sonos speakers. I had posted for help and was told the same thing so we ended up just going back to no VLANs. We have about 6 Sonos speakers in our office that are on all the time so +1 from us also.

Evening All
Sounds like there is decent interest in this.
Could Peplink give us an update on this?

+1, Network segregation has become a thing nowadays even for residential network, hope Peplink can prioritise this feature request.

I’d like to add my voice to this set of feature requests. My decision to invest in Peplink routers and access points was based primarily on a desire to create a more secure network with VLAN isolation and control via internal firewalls. So far this has been achievable – except in the case of Sonos.
Please consider adding such a feature to a future firmware release. Many thanks.

Peplink Team,
I have multipe partners pulling their hair out because of this SONOs issue in marine installs.
Please can you make this happen? I have deployments where we can test it.
Thanks!

Please let us know the deployments and we can look at that. We do need to do some capturing.

Hi Eddy. I bought a brand new SONOS One today to set up a lab. Would you believe - It works perfectly well across VLANs. I will now check to see what models of SONOS speakers are in use where inter VLAN control is not working.

@MartinLangmaid, would you able to share the model & generation for your SONOS One device ? It’s good that all know that model is working fine across VLANs.

Sure. Its a SONOS ONE Gen2.
I had it on a dedicated VLAN (tried it connected via both WIFI and Ethernet), and then ran the SONOS app on my phone connected to the Peplink via WIFI.
I setup two WIFI SSIDs one on untagged lan and one on the SONOS VLAN and tried hard to get the app to stop working but couldn’t no matter which LAN segment I was connected to.

Well, I guess SONOS improves support across VLAN!?.. I am pretty sure we didn’t do any specific things target for SONOS yet.

My thoughts too. I will try and get access to gen 1 SONOs to test with.

@MartinLangmaid: Would you mind to share the VLAN config you made (I assume Sonos One is connected to a tagged VLAN) and maybe the sharing / transfer settings between VLAN and the untagged LAN (I assume the Cell Phone with Controller app to be connected to)?
Especially settings like Network → Inter VLAN-Routing (active) and AP WIFI Layer2-Isolation (active) and Guest Protect → Block all Private IP (active) would be of interest for me (values in brackets are my settings). Or maybe any Firewall / Transfer rules set? E.g. I activated network → bonjour service forwarding from VLAN to untagged LAN.
So at least with the abovementioned settings I made it, that my Apple Cell Phone found a Sonos One Gen. 2 and could stream to it via Airplay2 using the standard iOS features. However not with the Sonos S2 app, unfortunately. No idea what to do to get Multicast directed…
