Broadcast between Vlans

Post by slaskaridis »

Hi
We have a scenario that a customer wants to install public announcements devices. The control devices are in vlan5. The audio devices are in vlan6. The installer says that we have to allow broadcast between Vlans. Also open few ports udp between Vlans. How can this be done?. Thank you.

not a good idea to route broadcast. I assume you need multicast between the vlans.
But if you realy need BC-Routing than you can activate ip directed-BD und make the sending client to a trusted source.
