Cisco SD-Access Network – Fabric-Enabled Wired and Wireless Mode
Overview
This quick configuration section, briefly covers different components of the Cisco DNA Service for Bonjour and describe how to configure the Cisco SD-Access Network – Fabric-enabled wired and wireless mode. The Cisco DNA Service for Bonjour is an end-to-end solution that includes the following key components and benefits:
Wide Area Bonjour for Cisco SD-Access Wired and Wireless
Service Discovery Gateway agent
A Catalyst 9000 switch in SD-Access Fabric-Edge role functions as an SDG agent and communicates with directly-attached wired and wireless Bonjour service endpoints to support mDNS gateway function. It exports aggregated mDNS service information to the central Cisco DNA controller to discover and distributed mDNS services across SD-Access fabric-domain.
Cisco DNA controller
The Cisco DNA controller provides a secure channel with trusted SDG agents for centralized services management and controlled mDNS service routing. The Cisco Wide Area Bonjour application operates across two integrated domain networks with end-to-end unicast-based service routing.
Endpoints
A endpoint is any device that advertises or queries mDNS services conforming to RFC 6762. The endpoints can be in either LANs or WLANs. The Wide Area Bonjour application is designed to integrate with RFC 6762-compliant Bonjour services, including AirPlay, Google Chromecast, AirPrint, and more.
Local Area Bonjour Domain
The Local Area Bonjour domain is a single gateway solution that terminates at Layer 3 network boundary on Cisco SD-Access Fabric Edge switch for wired and wireless endpoints.
Wide Area Bonjour Domain
The Wide Area Bonjour domain is a controller-based solution. The network wide distributed Catalyst 9000 series SDG agent devices establish a lightweight, stateful, and reliable communication channel with the centralized Cisco DNA Center controller running the Wide Area Bonjour application. The Cisco DNA-Center can discover and distribute mDNS services across Wide Area Bonjour domain based on policies.

Traditional Network – Collapsed Layer 2 LAN Access and Wireless Local Mode
This quick configuration section, briefly different components of the Cisco DNA Service for Bonjour and describe how to configure the Traditional Network – Collapsed wired and wireless network to single IP gateway.
Wide Area Bonjour for Collapsed Layer 2 LAN and Wireless Local Mode
Service peer
A Cisco® Catalyst® switch and Catalyst Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) in Layer 2 access function in service peer mode to support unicast-based communication with local attached endpoints and export service information to the upstream Cisco Service Discovery Gateway (SDG) agent in the distribution layer.
Service Discovery Gateway agent
A Catalyst switch functions as an SDG agent and communicates with the Bonjour service endpoints or aggregates information from the downstream service peer switch and WLC, and exports information to the central Cisco DNA controller.
Cisco DNA controller
The Cisco DNA controller is optional requirement as mDNS service-routing beyond single SDG agent may not be required. It enables secure channel with trusted SDG agents for centralized services management.
Endpoints
A Bonjour endpoint is any device that advertises or queries Bonjour services conforming to RFC 6762. The Bonjour endpoints can be in either LANs or WLANs. The Wide Area Bonjour application is designed to integrate with RFC 6762-compliant Bonjour services, including AirPlay, Google Chromecast, AirPrint, and so on.
Local Area Bonjour Domain
The Local Area Bonjour domain is a single gateway solution that terminates at Layer 3 network boundary of LAN and wireless distribution block. The introduction of the service peer switches and WLC at Layer 2 eliminates the classic flood-and-learn and introduces support for unicast-based service routing between local Layer 2 wired and wireless network devices. The Catalyst 9000 series switches and the Catalyst 9800 WLC supporting Local Mode Access-Point can be deployed in the service peer role.
Wide Area Bonjour Domain
The Wide Area Bonjour domain is a controller-based solution. The network wide distributed Catalyst 9000 series SDG agent devices establish a lightweight, stateful, and reliable communication channel with the centralized Cisco DNA Center controller running the Wide Area Bonjour application. The Cisco DNA-Center can discover and distribute mDNS services across Wide Area Bonjour domain based on policies.
