Bonjour Traffic \ AirPlay

Bonjour Traffic \ AirPlay

We are setting up Apple TV’s in a classroom environment to allow faculty to connect via wireless using Airplay Mirroring and project their screen. In general, I'm interested in how others are handling Bonjour traffic on a routed network and\or how network admins are handling this type solution in a bridged at controller environment.

Branden, A help guide would be nice. Would you be able to post some directions or screen shots? Thanks,

So, one vlan contains all bonjour traffic then all bonjour devices are visible to anyone anywhere? You know I'm the difficult one, Branden.

Hi Javier! I would recommend you create a VLAN only for Bonjour traffic and create a rule that will contain the traffic to that VLAN. The poor man's method is just dropping the traffic on the default Bridged at the AP topology. I'm on my phone but if I'll try to post a screenshot example when I get back to my desk.

I read through the doc you posted, but I don't see technical documentation on how you setup the bonjour traffic policy. We are currently at software version 8.31.03.0011 on our controllers and netsight version 5.0.0.252 Thanks,

Nice article Doug. It confirms what I discovered when implementing this a few months back. I agree you want to contain the Bonjour traffic to a BZone or VLAN. Policy based filtering and placement is the way to go. Of course policy based equipment and a NAC (Mobile IAM) go along way in achiving it.
