• Network packets must use 802.1Q VLAN tagging.
  • The VLAN ID must be unique for each network segment.
  • The TRIAX Cast Server must be connected to a trunk port that belongs to the three VLANs:
    • VLAN A : Chromecast network (tagged configuration)
    • VLAN B : Guest network (tagged configuration)
    • VLAN C : Management network (untagged configuration)
  • The Chromecast network must have internet access.
  • The Guest network must have internet access.
  • The Management network must have internet access, and TCP ports 80 and 443 must be open.
  • All the networks must be able to send multicast packets from the mDNS (IP 224.0.0.251 and port 5353) protocol.
    If second generation Chromecast devices are used, the SSDP (IP 239.255.255.250 and port 1900) protocol must also be enabled.
  • There must not be L3 routing between the Guest network, the Chromecast device network and the gateway control network.
  • There must not be isolation between the Gateway, the Chromecasts and the guests that limits the communication with the TRIAX Cast Server.
  • The network must be isolated from every other device network, no traffic should be able to pass.
  • There must be no layer 3 routing between any device and the TRIAX Cast Server.
  • The network must be DHCP enabled and all Chromecast devices and guest devices must get IP address from a DHCP server.
  • There must be no device isolation functions preventing the TRIAX Cast Server from communicating directly with the devices or preventing the devices from communicating directly with the TRIAX Cast Server.
     The TRIAX Cast Server must be white-listed on the network if access control is enforced by an access gateway or by other means.
  • Any kind of ARP Proxy must be disabled, or the server must be exempted from ARP proxy replies.
  • The devices on network must be isolated from each other to stop all cross talk.
