Gateway Mode
Gateway mode is configured if the network has no WLAN controller. In this mode, the traffic from the
edge switch is forwarded to the configured gateway switch.
The gateway will replicate and forward the received mDNS and SSDP packets on all the VLANs, based
on a pre-configured VLAN sharing list. Only mDNS and SSDP multicast packets are flooded to the
gateway VLAN list. Unicast packets are not flooded to the gateway VLAN list.
The following diagram represents a sample Gateway mode setup:
The following LAN scenario explains how mDNS service sharing is achieved.
Consider a LAN with a mix of wireless and wired users with Apple devices, such as an iPad, iPhone,
MAC laptop, Apple TV(Airplay) and Apple printers (AirPrinter) distributed across different VLANs
(10,20,30 and 40).
