Hi Jason,

The UvA want to use AppleTV . The AppleTV 's have a wired connection ( this is 
a conscious choice / WiFi is off) and should be available through the ssid 
eduroam/802.1x ( so i don't want a separate SSID for AppleTV )
We want to use AppleTV in all large meeting rooms (about 16 devices in the same 
building ). Once you 're connected to the SSID eduroam allows you to receive 
the relevant bonjour announcement ( eg name, meeting room B9.08 ) . This only 
works a little too well , because the bonjour ' announcement ' is also seen in 
the basement of the building (there are 283 access points spread over two 5508 
controllers ).
I would like to isolate the AppleTV announcements to only be available through 
one or two access points . This 'feature' is is currently not working ( even 
with LSS ) . In the Cisco Support Forum this problem is also discussed and 
there is already a TAC case . (627112765) It is advised to request a feature 
request through the Cisco account team. Who has more need for this 
functionality and make a request ...

(LSS is only applies to mDNS snooping via Wireless. If your planning on using 
the "mDNS AppleTV" feature , where you snoop mDNS on wired ports you will not 
have LSS capability for this moment and you need a separate SSID)

Onderwerp: [WIRELESS-LAN] Controlling Bonjour Zones

Hi,

We have Cisco wireless and are currently dev'ing up the bonjour gateway service 
release in 7.4. I know other vendors have similar workaround features and am 
interested see how people have gone with it, keen to hear from users of other 
vendors as well.

So far it all seems to work as advertised, was pretty easy setup with good 
control over what services you advertise. However I find there to be a lack of 
location control, and would like to know if anyone has implemented ways to 
control the location where the advertisements go.

For something like this we'd like to restrict the advertisements to location by 
building/level/room/AP, it will help it scale better for users devices when 
scrolling through the list of available devices to connect to like an Apple TV. 
Users in building 1 don't need to see an Apple TV in a meeting room in building 
2. Using separate SSID's is also not really a scalable solution... though does 
work of course with a dedicated subnet and multicast enabled.

We currently don't have building based networks, which would be one way to 
control advertisements. This is something we are planning, but are a while off 
yet, also the ability to go more granular than just buildings would be useful.

I've started a conversation with our local Cisco office, but am interested see 
what others may have done or believe could be useful for this.

Regards

Jason
