Allowing port 5000 on UFW is not enough to communicate with SONOS

Open ghost opened this issue 11 months ago • 1 comments

I don't know if this is a problem with my setup or more people have it too, but for me allowing Port 5000 wasn't enough to communicate between my PC and SONOS (I also use a VPN with a Kill-Switch active, if that may make the difference).

For me to be able to communicate between my PC (.1.5) and my SONOS device (.1.10), I had to allow/do the following.

  • ufw allow 5000
  • ufw allow from 192.168.1.10 to 192.168.1.5
  • ufw allow from 192.168.1.5 to 192.168.1.10

Only after adding these 3 rules and reloading UFW I was able to actually communicate with my SONOS speakers. Hopefully someone with the same problem will stumble upon this Issue and will be able to figure it out.
