Hi @britannic,

 

thanks for your detailed information. Because I'm very new into EdgeOS and its cli, I'm very sorry that I need to ask the following very basic questions. I hope you can answer them although.

 

Did I get your solution in post 8 right, that I need to transfer the .tgz-file, that you provided for download, via filezilla or equivalent software, into any directory on the EdgeRouter and then, via cli, move into that directory via 'cd', and then the file is untared via 'sudo tar zxvf ubnt-bcast-relay.tgz' into the new folder 'ubnt-bcast-relay/ '  ??

 

And did I get you also right, that by following the steps 1-7 like you described and having the services configured once, the broadcast relay services remain available, even after reboot?

 

And my last question: do I understand your config code right,

set service bcast-relay id 1 description 'Play-Fi listener'
set service bcast-relay id 1 interface eth0.5
set service bcast-relay id 1 interface eth0.6
set service bcast-relay id 1 port 10102

that on eth0.5 a listener interface is configured, that relays incoming broadcasts addressed to 255.255.255.255 port 10102 to eth0.6 ? Or how can I understand the priority of those two interfaces?

 

Once again I'm sorry for asking my basic questions...

Thanks a lot for your help!

 

Best regards,

Dennis

There isn't a priority, whenever an interface sees a broadcast on the configured port 10102, it is relayed to the other configured interfaces.
