What's worse is when you start having tens or hundreds of these devices on the network - it'd be very easy to fat-finger and Airplay to the wrong one. Thinking about wide-area DNS-SD, you could perhaps use DHCP option 82 to publish subdomains for DNS-SD that only publishes Apple TVs in the building of that AP or switch. I've no idea how you'd manage that sort of mapping though, doing it manually is out of the question, is there any software to manage that sort of thing?
