LAN Discovery
Many admins who have tried, reported a local server does not appear on the LAN tab in the steam browser.
LAN Discovery
Workarounds
Console Command
Connect using the console command.
1
connect IP:PORT
Copied!
If the port is 27015, then you can just use :
connect IP1
connect 192.168.1.10:27025
Copied!
Add server to favourites
Add the server to the server browser's favourites. If in-game, then go to the legacy browser if applicable to find it. The syntax to use is the same as for the console connection.
Make sure your server actually works and is reachable on LAN, otherwise what you need is rather Troubleshooting first.
Fix
As this github issue shows, there might be a possible configuration that fixes the issue, but LinuxGSM devs were not able to reproduce it at the time of writing the doc, so this information is purely experimental and you are welcome to update it or post on the issue if you have useful information to share about it.
- 1.
- 2.Change
ip="0.0.0.0"to an actual interface IP, for exampleip="192.168.1.10"; this will allow LinuxGSM to monitor and query your server properly. - 3.In the
fn_parmssection, add+sv_lan 1and make sure you replace-ip ${ip}with-ip 0.0.0.0 - 4.Make sure your server main port listens to one of these IP or IP ranges: 4242 ; 26900-26905 ; 27015-27020 ; 27215
