Which IP ports for AVID Control?

[Frank Kruse]

Hi,

we're having trouble connecting iPad to DAWs and I was wondering which ports need to be open for AVID Control to work?

There a Ubiquity AP in the network and iPads are on a closed VLAN with the DAWs. Everything workd incl Spancontrol for Spanner so there's definitely flow of data from the iPad to the Mac. The only thing that doesn't work is AVID Control. I have allowed all TCP/UDP traffic from iPad to the DAW in the firewall.

The only thing that DOES work however is connecting when the Wifi is enabled on the MAC connected to the same SSID/Network. I can enable the iPad in Eucon and I can then disable Wifi on the Mac and it will then keep on working across the net with the iPad connecting to the VLAN via the Ubiquity AP and the MAC via the normal ethernet connection. Only the initial connect only works when both are in the same Wifi.

Very odd. I guess it's because they can see each other from within the AP for the connect.

But why does this not work without turning on Wifi on the Mac side? I have tried everything from rules wide open on the firewall (pfsense) to specifically allowing all traffic iPad IP to MAC IP. No difference.

Any other idea?

I tried the recommendations in the tech info (IGMP snooping off etc. etc., no difference). mDNS (Bonjour) is enabled as well.

This is with the latest AVID Control app and Eucon version

Thanks!

Frank.
