SoundTouch on different subnet
Hi,
I cannot connect to my speakers from a different VLAN/Subnet.
I have been reading in another post about this being due to security reasons. I really cannot see where this provides any security. Due to me it just creates hassle.
A quick fix is to run a mDNS proxy and simply masquerade the client subnet towards the SoundTouch subnet. So there is no security enhancement at all for private subnets.
In a corporate context this is a reason to ban Bose SoundTouch. To decide if another subnet should not be allowed to connect is a task for a firewall!
Please change it and allow incoming connections from all private address spaces:
10.0.0.0/8
172.16.0.0/12
192.168.0.0/16
fd80::/8
If this is not changed, we cannot install these speakers in our enterprise.
