Aqara Smart Lock u100, Matter and VLANs

Hi,

For the life of me I am having issues adding my Aqara E1 Hub (zigbee) to HA via Matter.

Below is a breakdown of my network/device config:

  • The E1 Hub is on my IoT VLAN
  • The router is a Opnsense appliance
  • The opnsense router has mdns FW rules and mdns repeater enabled
  • I have an Apple TV 3rd Gen 4K with Ethernet to act as my homekit hub

So at the moment I am out of ideas how to connect my E1 Hub to HA via Matter. If anyone can provide some pointers that would be great.

To add to the complexity of the issue my E1 Hub is connected to HA via the HomeKit Device Integration so I know it can talk to it, but not sure what else I am missing here.

If anyone can point to some ideas related to opnsense/HA I am all ears, thanks!
