+Crossing Network Boundaries
+===========================
+
+DLNA/UPnP relies on multicast traffic, which typically doesn't cross network boundaries (e.g., between VLANs or subnets). If you need to access your DMS server from a different network segment, you can use `dlna-proxy <https://github.com/fenio/dlna-proxy>`_ to bridge the gap.
