apple tv mirroring

[Laura4]

anyone have any ideas why a mac laptop, ipad, or iphone will not mirror to apple tv? All are on wireless vlan. The wireless works. The apple tv shows up in the mirror list, but when i click on it, the device will act like its trying to mirror, but then doesn't.
apple tv model A1469. . .. Does anyone know what the number in parenthesis means?

If you do have some rules in your users applied role that may be blocking traffic, take a look at this article. It may help...

The addition of a number is a feature of Bonjour networking that Airplay uses to see other Airplay devices. What's causing it on your network are ghosts of your own devices not clearing themselves properly. When the device reconnects to your network or gets a new IP address, it see these ghosts and renames itself to not conflict with the ghost device. Harmless, yet annoying.

In your Role that gets applied to the user are there any rules blocking traffic types (deny)??
