My Sonos One device is working properly in my Cisco wired and wireless infrastructure. I try to change it with Sonos S2, I can not find Sonos S2 on my mobile. (I use S2 app on my mobile.)

 

Is there any differences between Sonos One and S2 needs for Cisco infrastructure?

Make sure multicast is enabled, also ports 1400,1410,1443,1843,7000 are open on your switchports. Try switching on/off L3 roaming.

I’m running the same thing, and intentionally have not defined a multicast vlan, mdns helper, etc. on the Cisco side.  However, what is critical to allow is in your wireless controller, at your WLAN settings → Advanced level, the box “P2P Blocking Action” must be set to Disabled.  Without that, devices on the same vlan cannot talk wifi to wifi or wired to wifi for security reasons.  If you choose one of the other options besides drop, such as forwarding to the upstream device, you may then need multicast, mdns, and/or igmp snooping enabled and functional for your switch to know how to let the devices discover one another.
