So every so often my freenas install generates a mDNS packet which causes my LG tv to generate a prompt for a pairing key. This greatly annoys the wife while she watches her Netflix. This in turn means I get yelled at to fix it.
I have FreeNAS in a mixed Windows and OSX environment at home.
Using wireshark I captured the packet that FreeNAS generated:
"1136968 2886.409265 192.168.1.1 224.0.0.251 MDNS 85 Standard query 0x0000 PTR _lg_dtv_wifirc._tcp.local, "QM" question"
For me my simple fix would just be to use iptables to drop mDNS packets with the "_lg_dtv_wifirc" in the payload. But FreeNAS doesn't have iptables. So that being said how would you go about solving the issue at hand?
