Device (BDD) at the device level. If possible, use the newest model AP you have in a
low traffic area.

list.

left pane, select .

Gateway Settings.

Set the
Priority for the AP you want to use as your BDD to
around 250.

automatic priority level (10-20) for the Bonjour service. The AP with the
highest priority setting will act as the Bonjour Gateway. The MAC address is
used if the priority is the same on all APs.
