Cisco DNA Service for Bonjour supports various types of traditional wired and wireless LAN network deployment models. This chapter lists configuration instructions to implement global service filter policies in the Cisco Wide Area Bonjour application, enabling network-wide service-routing functions between various supporting deployment models.
This section provides guidelines to create a global configuration policy that enables Wide Area Bonjour within a traditional LAN, providing Bonjour services (such as wired printers) to wireless users connected over wireless networks with Cisco Wireless Access Points in local mode.
The following figure illustrates example network topologies for traditional LAN and wireless local-mode networks with Bonjour source and receiver agents across IP networks.
 Note |
The Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series Wireless Controller with access-point in FlexConnect Central Switching mode follows the same configuration steps described in this section. For more information about the Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series Wireless Controller configuration guidelines, see the Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series Wireless Controller Software Configuration Guide, Cisco IOS XE Amsterdam 17.3.x. |

A unidirectional service filter allows network-wide service discovery for operation and management purposes. However, the service can't be distributed across the IP network without configuring a query agent. For the steps to configure a query SDG agent, see Configure Query SDG Agents in Traditional LAN and Wireless Local Mode.

This section lists guidelines for additional configuration steps to enable discovering wired printer sources from LAN switch-1 in an SDG agent role. The wired printer can be discovered by remotely connected wired users from LAN switch-2.
A unidirectional service filter allows network-wide service discovery for operation and management purposes. However, it can't be distributed across the IP network unless you configure a query SDG agent. For steps to configure a query SDG agent, see Configure Query SDG Agents in Traditional Routed Access LAN.
Ensure that you've completed the steps in Configure Service Filters for Traditional Routed Access LAN.
| Step 1 |
Click Add in the upper-right corner of the window. |
| Step 2 |
Click the radio button to select a source SDG agent. By default, the source radio button is selected. |
| Step 3 |
From the SDG Agent/IP drop-down list, choose an SDG agent (10.0.0.1) that announces the services (printer). |
| Step 4 |
From the Service Layer drop-down list, choose Local. |
| Step 5 |
Uncheck the Any check box. By default, this check box is unchecked. |
| Step 6 |
Select the source VLAN (Vlan-A) to discover services (Printer) from a specific network. |
| Step 7 |
Enable or disable a service from a selected source IPv4 subnet. By default, this is enabled. |
| Step 8 |
Enable or disable a service from a selected source IPv6 subnet. By default, this is enabled. |
| Step 9 |
For Location Group, do one of the following:
|
| Step 10 |
(Optional) Click Add Next to add more source SDG agents. (Repeat the preceding steps.) |
| Step 11 |
Click DONE. |
| Step 12 |
Click CREATE. |
This section lists the additional configuration steps to distribute services to query SDG agents, based on a policy.
For instructions to configure a source SDG agent, see Configure Source SDG Agents in Traditional Routed Access LAN.
Ensure that you've completed the steps in Configure Service Filters for Traditional Routed Access LAN.
| Step 1 |
Click Add in the upper-right corner of the window. |
| Step 2 |
Click the radio button to select a query SDG agent. By default, the source radio button is selected. |
| Step 3 |
From the SDG Agent/IP drop-down list, choose an SDG agent (192.0.2.3) that receives queries for the services (printer). |
| Step 4 |
From the Service Layer drop-down list, choose Local. |
| Step 5 |
Ensure that the Any check box is unchecked. By default, this is enabled. |
| Step 6 |
Select the query VLAN (Vlan-B) to distribute services (printer) to a specific network. |
| Step 7 |
Enable or disable services from the selected query IPv4 subnet. By default, this is enabled. |
| Step 8 |
Enable or disable services from the selected query IPv6 subnet. By default, this is enabled. |
| Step 9 |
For Location Group, do one of the following:
|
| Step 10 |
(Optional) Click Add Next to add more query agents. (Repeat the preceding steps.) |
