Chromecast not streaming over wireless ...

[Kaitlyn_M_]

I'm using IdentiFi Wireless in my school district, how do I solve these problems:

- Chromecast is not streaming over wireless

- Chromecast utility is not able to locate the Chromecast device

It's recommended to put that kind of devices in a dedicated VLAN/topology.
Here a link to the "The Extreme Networks Solution for Apple Bonjour Traffic Management"....

Because the setting is only enabled on this VLAN/topology the other VLAN/topology are not "affected".

I understand this will fix the chromecast issue. I just want to verify that enabling Multicast Bridging will not cause conflicts with other wireless devices on the network like laptops or phones.

If you are allowing a specific group like the article suggests vs ALL multicast then it should not cause issues, unless the rates for that group are high.

The info is in the KB as well, pretty much what Rob said:
