Unfortunately, I don’t see it ever working with airgroup due to the broadcast traffic Sonos stations require. :/ you can get it working by disabling open flow on the role in an Aruba environment.
I deloped an 802.1x solution to help with supporting them network wise, it is extremely clunky due to the broadcast requirement. Either way it’s really not a good idea for enterprise environments due to broadcast filter having to be disabled on the wlan side for it to work. IoT vendors are going to continue to cause us enterprise guys a hard time until standard are put in place and enforced. T.J.

This was left at the engineering level with Aruba working for an AOS8 patch to resolve the issue. The last version we tested with was 8.3.0.9 and that still wasn’t patched / updated to work with Sonos and AirGroups. We ended up just putting the users and the Sonos speakers into the same layer 2 and disabled the broadcast filters for a small group as a work around.

Some support AirPlay, and others don’t. We have it working for a couple one offs, but have it completely isolated from the rest of the network. Caveats include, Have to be in the same layer 2, and broadcast filtering has to be disabled particularly for discovery. If an Aruba environment that also means the role has to have all the proper exceptions, and if running AOS8 with centralized AirGroup open flow has to be disabled at the role so that the mm doesn’t know about it Sent from my iPad On Nov 27, 2019, at 11:45 AM, Paul Reimer <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: ________________________________ [ EXTERNAL EMAIL: Do not click any links or open attachments unless you know the sender and trust the content. ] ________________________________ Hi everyone, I was wondering how you’re managing actually joining Sonos products to your network. If you’ve had the pleasure of setting some of these up you may know why I need to ask. They don’t really like to individually be directed to join a network and they don’t really have a UI that just lets you log in a manage a units network connection. The best I’ve come up with is a kind of convoluted process that requires setting them up wired first and then directing the set you want to manage with a given (newly required) user account to join the network at the same time. I think there’s also differences between product lines. So far my experience is with Play:1’s, Play:5’s, and Connects which our process works with.
