Bonjour mDNS Reflector Layer 3 Vlan Interface

BaudMatt — Wed, 16 Apr 2025 18:37:51 GMT

Just curious if anyone out there knows why Palo Alto has never implemented the Bonjour Reflector feature in Layer 3 Vlan interfaces.

PAN implemented this a long time ago but it is only available on physical Layer 3 interfaces (or subinterfaces) or aggregate links.

- Is there a technical reason for not implementing on L3 Vlans or just that they never got around to it?

- Outside of contacting a sales rep, is there somewhere online to submit feature requests?

I've got a number of setups where the majority of the LAN is setup where the PAN physical interfaces are Layer 2 Interfaces/Subinterfaces and Layer 3 are Vlan interfaces and it'd be nice if Bonjour/mDNS reflector operated in this type of environment.

Good Day

Thanks for the message. Our LiveCommunity is volunteer driven with customers and technical contacts.
The best way that I may recommend to seek out your answer may be to work with your local PANW Solution Consultant, who is able to open a FR (feature request) ticket, and submit to Product Management for their review and consideration into future product features.

Thank you for your time and consideration in this matter.

I asked my PAN rep about this and he said a feature request has been made with ID: NSFR-I-24128.
