Apple Bonjour and mDNS AP

Mats Nilson — Mon, 05 Jul 2021 13:29:39 GMT

Dear networking collegues.

I have a customer with Apple clients who wants to utilize mDNS and Bonjour spoofing on a WLAN. The issue is that the source of bonjour services is on the same vlan as Radius and SNMP management and thus cannot be directly connected to the wlc. The solution would be to use mDNS AP and map the server(bonjour) vlan in the advanced mDNS spoofing settings on that AP.

Here is the crux: On the FEX6800 switched network no multicast whatever is propagated to the accesspoint even though the switchport is forwarding on that particular (tagged) vlan. We installed a "normal" Cat3560CX switch with the same settings and then suddenly the AP suddenly showed som mDNS sources, but not more than 3 out of 30 Apple Bonjour sources.

Anyone who had similar problems and how can i solve this?

Hi Mats,

I understand this post is 1Y old and you have very probably solved this issue already, however I'm curious to know if you have and how. Sounds the FEX6800 had some issues.

Thank you.
