1 year ago This is a firewall/threat detection "problem".
When LanCache prefill is used it connects through "fastly-download.epicgames.com" (as seen in the LanCache prefill logs), this triggers my Firewall and Thread Protection in the UDR Pro SE.
ET USER_AGENTS Suspicious User-Agent (USERAGENT)
When the normal EPIC Client is used to install the exact same game through the LanCache then this does not trigger the Firewall and Threat Detection which I guess is down to the client connecting to a different CDN than "fastly-download.epicgames.com"?
I have now excluded the IP of the LanCache in the Firewall & Threat Detection of my UDM Pro SE and now LanCache prefill works

What works:
What does not work:
While I can completelly configure EpicPrefill in both the Unraid Docker as well as the standanlone windows application, the prefill download does not progress and stays at 0% with no network traffic.
The bandwitdh value shown in the Unraid Docker version is "broken" as it shows several Gbps which my internet connection is not capable of - also there is no progress and no drive activity on my LanCache nvme.
The bandwitdh indicator in the windows build is more accurate as there is no traffic.
LanCache Logs: These are the logs from an attempt to prefill City Skylines
upstream-error.log error.log access.log LanCache_access.log
Games tested with Unraid Prefill docker as well as the windows build:
With the Epic Launcher I can download these games, even on the same machine where the EpicPrefill.exe does not produce any download traffic.
Use EpicPrefill on a game that is already in the LanCache
Result: EpicPrefill.exe "downloads" everything that the EpicLauncher put in the lancache.
