5.3. Wireless control with external switches
Switch mode configuration:
"Switched".
Dante multicast traffic can easily saturate a wireless link. In order to
prevent this, an external switch with IGMP Snooping may be used.
The switch only routes multicast audio to the Dante nodes that have
requested it, and not to the port to which the Wireless Access Point
is attached.
Note: Some switches provide the option to filter all multicast
traffic on individual ports. However, this can also filter out
some desired multicast traffic, such as mDNS (aka Bonjour),
which is required by R1 V2 in order to detect applicable d&b
amplifiers on the network.
