User's Manual
Parameter Description
Disallow VLANs User VLANs restricted from accessing the service.
Disallow Roles User Roles restricted from accessing the service.
Service IDs Specifies the mDNS or DLNA service IDs.
An AirGroup mDNS service ID is the name of a Bonjour service offered by
a Bonjour-enabled device or application. Bonjour defines mDNS service ID
strings using the following format
<underscore>servicename<period><underscore>protocol.local
Example: _airplay._tcp.local
The mDNS service ID string is case sensitive and must be entered as is
without any modification, with the exception of the .local portion of the
service ID which is optional.
When you add an existing mDNS service ID to a new service, Airgroup
automatically deletes the mDNS service ID from the old service and
displays a warning message. A sample warning message is as follows:
service id <_ssh._tcp> removed from <remotemgmt> and added
to <remotelogin>
The DLNA service IDs are colon separated and the service ID should have
the following format to discover DLNA server or devices with the maximum
label size of 128 characters:
urn:domain-name:device:deviceType:ver
urn:domain-name:service:serviceType:ver
For example, you can use the following service ID to support DLNA
media server under AirGroup:
urn:schemas-upnp-org:device:MediaServer:1
NOTE: Cache refresh mechanism is not required for DLNA, as the DLNA
devices advertise their service periodically.
Using the CLI
Use the airgroupservice command to define an AirGroup service using the command-line interface.
airgroupservice <name>
Sample Configuration
The following example configures the iPhoto service with access to the _dpap._tcp service ID to share photos
across MacBooks:
(host) (config) #airgroupservice iPhoto
(host) (config-airgroupservice) #description "Share Photos"
(host) (config-airgroupservice) #id _dpap._tcp
Configuring the disallow-role for an AirGroup Service
An AirGroup service is accessible to all user devices associated to your controller by default. The disallow-role
parameter prevents devices with the specified user roles from accessing AirGroup services.
airgroupservice <string>
disallow-role <string>
Sample Configuration
(host) (config) #airgroupservice iPhoto
(host) (config-airgroupservice) #disallow-role guest
