Description
The attached document answers the question of how to use AirPlay and AirPrint when a FortiWiFi unit separates client and server AirPlay and AirPrint devices.
Solution
To configure the FortiWiFi unit to allow printing to an AirPrint-compatible printer, the network topology determines the solution. For example, if an iPhone and an AirPrint-compatible printer both use WiFi to connect to the same FortiWiFi wireless access point on the same subnet, no FortiWiFi configuration changes are required as long as intra-SSID traffic is not blocked. The iPhone and the printer can communicate directly.
If the iPhone and the AirPrint-compatible printer are on different networks separated by a FortiWiFi unit you can use the information below to set all AirPrint communication through the FortiWiFi unit.
The attached document provides examples which describe how to allow AirPlay communication between AirPlay devices also separated by a FortiWiFi unit.
