Hi @Satishk4
The Access Points have already Multicast and Broadcast enabled, therefore the other Sonos device can see each other, now there is another configuration for multicast that you can run, however must be configured via CLI (command line interface), using any external application such a Putty or Mobaxterm, lo let me add the command and the steps.
1: Find the IP address of the Master Access Point, this can be found in , Unleashed Dashboard or unleashed APP , or you can use the next guide to discover your network device's IP address.
How to find my Ruckus “Devices IP address” using free applications
2: Now you know the IP address, you need to gain remote access to the Master Access Point using any of the next two Application: Putty or Mobaxterm, you can follow up the next guide:
How to remotely access to 'ICX 7150-12P' or 'access points' "Network devices"
3: You will be requested for credentials which must be the same you used in the Unleashed APP or Dashboard, if you don't know the credential test the next combination:
Username: Passwords:
admin sp-admin
Lennar
lennar
ruckus
Ruckus!
Ruckus1
admin
password
4: Once you get access you need to run the next set of commands to disabled Directed Multicast/Broadcast.
Command |
Explanation |
no qos directed-multicast |
This prevents the WLAN from converting multicast traffic to unicast |
qos directed-threshold 0 |
This disables BOTH directed broadcast and directed multicast on the SSID. If there is only a single client, it will receive broadcast traffic as broadcast and multicast traffic as multicast. |
SSH to the Master Access Point l ‘IP address’
Go to enable then AP-Mode
enable
Ap-mode
ruckus> enable
ruckus# ap-mode
You have all rights in this mode.
ruckus(ap-mode)#
ruckus(ap-mode)# set qos eth0 directed multicast disable
Directed Multicast ingress packet processing is Disabled on interface eth0
OK
ruckus(ap-mode)# set qos eth1 directed multicast disable
Directed Multicast ingress packet processing is Disabled on interface eth1

ruckus(ap-mode)# set qos eth0 igmp disa
IGMP Snooping is Disabled on interface eth0

ruckus(ap-mode)# set qos eth1 igmp disa

ruckus(ap-mode)# set qos eth1 classification disa

OK
ruckus(ap-mode)# set qos eth0 classification disa
