IAP-103 Airgroup blocking Ambilight+Hue discovery

    Hey All,

     

    Like the topic says i'm having trouble with the discovery of my Hue bridge by my ambilight TV.

     

    At first i had trouble getting Apple homekit to discover the bridge as well. This was solved by adding a few services to the airgroup configuration. The only problem left is the discovery of the Hue bridge by my Ambilight TV.

     

    The reason for this is the wireless network. When i plug in the TV with a network cable everything works like a charm.

     

    I think i have found the reason for this but i have not been able to find a way to solve it.

     

    Here is a overview of my dropped airgroup services:

     

    AirGroup dropped Query IDs
    --------------------------
    Service ID                                           #query-hits
    ----------                                           -----------
    urn:schemas-upnp-org:device:InternetGatewayDevice:1  270
    uuid:9ab0c000-f668-11de-9976-00a0ded565ff            9
    upnp:Basic                                           25
    urn:schemas-wifialliance-org:device:WFADevice:1      9
    Num dropped Query IDs:4

     

    The first and last one were added successfully to the allowed list and the counters for this no longer go up. The problem seems to be with the 3rd one the upnp:Basic. If i try the discovery on the TV the counter goes up by one each time.

     

    I tried defining this upnp:Basic as a service in the instant config but it keeps saying that the syntax is incorrect so i figured i must be going about this the wrong way.

     

    I tried google but this didnt get me anywhere either.

     

    Does anyone here know how to configure the AP to allow upnp:Basic?

     

    Here is some info about my IAP:

     

    Name                :Aruba Operating System Software
    Type                :103
    Build Time          :2016-12-15 04:26:57 PST
    Version             :6.5.1.0-4.3.1.0_57768

     

    Broadcast filtering is set to disabled on the SSID btw.

     

    Thanks a lot for the help.

    You can also try disabling airgroup.

    Hello Colin,

     

    Thanks for the reply. That was actually the starting point. With airgroup disabled i couldnt get it to work at all. So thats not an option im afraid.

    I guess you already tried disabling airgroup and making sure that broadcast filtering was off?

     

    Did you try disabling it from the commandline?

     

    config t

    airgroup disable

    commit apply
