<p dir="ltr">Multicast doesn't have destination IPs to filter by, so multicast traffic leaving a node can't be filtered that way by the node. As to filtering it coming in, it might be possible to prevent VMs/CTs from seeing the Proxmox multicast data by simply preventing it from being forwarded to those interfaces. But you'll still have the multicast across your LAN either way, because that's how multicast works.</p>

It's not possible with a firewall to say only send multicast traffic to a specific host.<br>
(or it's not multicast anymore ;)<br>

But, i think that is possible, while PVE is transmitting in mode multicast by ports UDP 5404 and 5405, the firewall can drop the packets for all except for the IP addresses that are the PVE Nodes.<br>
<br>
A example in iptables (we know that the order of the rules is important for get this target):<br>
<br>
iptables -A OUTPUT -o <a-IP-address-of-PVE-Node> -p udp -m multiport --ports 5404,5405 -j ACCEPT<br>
iptables -A OUTPUT -o <other-IP-address-of-Other-<u></u>PVE-Node> -p udp -m multiport --ports 5404,5405 -j ACCEPT<br>
#And finally the magic rule:<br>
iptables -A OUTPUT -p udp -m multiport --ports 5404,5405 -j DROP<br>
<br>
i see it very simple, or i am missing of something? <br>
