Title: Transparent firewall and IPTV
Post by: franc on August 16, 2019, 06:21:28 PM
Hello ,
What rules have to be set to run IPTV on a OpnSense box ( transparent firewall configuration) plugged on a livebox4 ?
Any advices ? are there some floating rules to change ?
Thank you

Have you reviewed the provider and television manual what ports are required?

Some IPTV here in Germany needs to handle specific VLANs for QoS.  Not sure if you have to look into that with your provider aswell.

Thank you Dominik

Yes here in France too, but can such parameters be set for a transparent firewall ?

Best regards

Hey,

with transparent configuration you mean you are using a bridge between WAN and LAN?
Mhm thats indeed more complex since two VLANs are required.

If you only would need one I would configure the bridge to the WAN VLAN interface and try if that works.
But you would not see the traffic from the other VLAN then.

If you want to do firewalling you would have to let the VLANs from WAN terminate on the opnsense. This would lead to multiple WAN interfaces. I am not optimistic that this is possible with two VLANs on WAN to one LAN and then transparent firewalling.

Maybe others have more input on that?

Hello,

Thank you ,
Yes I mean a bridge between LAN and WAN like described in "transparent firewall" . I thought there where some simple rules allowing this IPTV traffic.
