I'm looking at blocking inter-station traffic, by unticking 'Enable Inter-Station Traffic' but I'm also looking at using Apple TVs and Chromecasts on the WiFi. Just wondering if anyone has come up with a way to still allow access to services like Apple TVs or Chromecasts without the need to cable them in?

That depends a lot on the version of the AppleTVs. The 3rd generation and newer (I think) actually use low power bluetooth for pairing to the iOS device to do the screen share. Meaning they don't even have to be connected to a WLAN to work.
The older ones use the WLAN for all communications.

Bonjour would be needed to traverse VLANs, not SSIDs specifically (unless the SSIDs were attached to different VLANs).

@Brian Powers
I'm not a Apple person... but don't you need to setup mDNS "Bonjour routing" in addition multi SSID setup in order for it to work? Or can you just input a IP address on another subnet on the iPad to reach the Apple TV like any other normal device?

Inter-station traffic is specific to SSIDs. Meaning that two devices both connected to the same SSID would and same AP would not be able to communicate.
You should be able to have one device on one SSID and another device on another and even though inter-station traffic is disabled on both SSIDs, the devices should be able to communicate with each other.
There was a thread regarding this on the old forums from years ago. I can't find the thread though. So this could act differently now, but based on where the traffic filter is applied, it should still work.
It's not pretty, but I ended up doing this to enable inter-station traffic blocking on a student SSID while still allowing the teachers iOS devices to monitor the students devices via Apple Classroom app.

@Hammertime Right in the HiveOS release notes. HOS-11138 Enabling Bonjour Gateway on an AP150W, AP122 or AP122X can cause those devices to report excessively high CPU loads. Workaround: Because Bonjour Gateway is a legacy feature than is generally unnecessary, you can either disable Bonjour Gateway, or relocate Bonjour Gateways to a higher-powered access point such as an AP550.

@Carsten Buchenau Thanks for that. I certainly look forward to the release!
