Controller Based WLANs

Answer- Generally we may notice that the Sonos wireless devices are not able to pass  discovers / requests / replies through Aruba controller . One of the main reason could be the DLNA limitation on the controller when Airgroup is enabled. In such situations, if we disable Airgroup we can notice these devices start working fine. But if we want to use Sonos wireless speakers with AirGroup enabled on their Aruba wireless networks, we may have to enable some DLNA Airgroup services.
 
If we check through the blocked AirGroup services multiple times (show airgroup blocked-service-id dlna). We can find the following service IDs to the DLNA Media airgroup service in order to make this system work as desired:
 
airgroupservice "DLNA Media"
  id "urn:schemas-upnp-org:service:GroupRenderingControl:1"
  id "urn:schemas-sonos-com:service:Queue:1"
  id "urn:schemas-upnp-org:service:AVTransport:1"
  id "urn:schemas-upnp-org:service:RenderingControl:1"
  id "urn:schemas-tencent-com:service:QPlay:1"
  id "urn:schemas-upnp-org:service:GroupManagement:1"
  id "urn:schemas-upnp-org:service:ZoneGroupTopology:1"
  id "urn:schemas-upnp-org:service:DeviceProperties:1"
  id "urn:schemas-upnp-org:service:MusicServices:1"
  id "urn:schemas-upnp-org:service:AlarmClock:1"
  id "urn:schemas-upnp-org:device:ZonePlayer:1"
  id "urn:schemas-upnp-org:service:SystemProperties:1"
  id "urn:schemas-upnp-org:service:ContentDirectory:1"
  id "urn:schemas-upnp-org:service:ConnectionManager:1"
 
We can add these under an airgroup service as "Sonos Services" or any other name in order to differentiate this traffic from other DLNA traffic.
