On pre-7.4 code as long as you're on the same layer 2 vlan as the AppleTV and have multicast enabled you'll still see the advertisements and be able to use it, it's just when you try to cross L3 boundaries or disable multicast that you'll need 7.4 or greater.

The default profile is even applied to the WLANs by default. Our position is that airplay is officially unsupported at this point since there are some unknowns administratively and politically with this, and we have some old WiSMs running 7.0 for a bit more yet. So we're not advertising this service or anything, but it looks like at least technically it works quite well. One thing I don't understand, is that I've seen a couple of appleTVs associated to those old WiSMs that are broadcasting themselves as airplay receivers. Since only 7.4 supports the gateway, I don't understand how those are getting advertised like that.

Doesn't require multicast. Just enable the Bonjour snooping option globallly on each controller (off by default), and turn it off on each WLAN you don't want to snoop on (on by default at WLAN level). That's it because there is a default profile that you can use, but apparently now Apple in later ios releases has changed airplay mirroring so you have to add the "AirTunes" service type to the default profile (it is defined but not active) before mirroring will work. It is incredibly simple on 7.4. Mark On Thu, Apr 25, 2013 at 1:18 PM, Lee H Badman <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Mark- Do you have a Doc on the Airplay thing?

We're enjoying the AirPlay support too, which seems very solid.

We had to downgrade from 7.4 to 7.3 due to our 1142 APs crashing. We had the patched engineering release that was supposed to fix this, but apparently there were multiple 1142 issues. The bug that we were hitting has yet to be patched. Our hopes in going to 7.4 was to use a single HA only controller in a "pool" with our production controllers. Apparently this feature was implemented in 7.4. Has anyone been able to use this? We did not get to test it due to the downgrade.
