If the device possesses more than one IP interface the
Default Gateway
setting defines the
gateway of a given IP interface, which is going to route all non-local network traffic. One of
the existing IP interfaces with a separate network must be selected here.
Up to three
DNS Servers
can be defined on this page. These DNS servers will be contacted
by all services on any of the IP interfaces for name resolution. In case the DNS servers are
supplied by DHCP running one of the IP interfaces, change the setting
Use DNS servers
from
to point to that interface.
The device can be configured to synchronize its clock with NTP time. Enter the IP address
of a primary and, optionally, a secondary NTP server. The device will use NTP as a time
source if the time sync source in the system configuration page is set to
NTP
(see Section
5.2.11). The field
NTP status
below the NTP server settings displays the current NTP
synchronization status (
out-of-sync
, or
in-sync
). The settings made here apply to all IP
interfaces. In case the NTP servers are supplied by DHCP running one of the IP interfaces,
change the setting
Use NTP servers from
to point to that interface.
The
Connection Keep Alive
feature allows the device to automatically ping other devices
on the IP network in order to maintain an IP connection that might be automatically
disconnected after a specific period of time (e.g. DSL routers automatically disconnect if no
activity is detected). When enabled choose one of the options Auto IP or Custom IP.
If auto IP mode is selected and the device has a CEA-852 configuration server, a ping
message is sent to all CEA-852 devices in the channel list of the configuration server. If the
configuration server is disabled on this device a ping message is sent to the configuration
server for the IP-852 channel, if one is known. If custom IP is selected, one specific IP
address can be configured as the ping destination.
5.2.4 CEA-852 Device Configuration (LDALI-10X only)
The CEA-852 protocol is only available on the Ethernet port. To enable CEA-852 on the
device, select the
CEA-852 (CEA-709 over IP)
checkbox on the
Ethernet
tab of the port
configuration page. Note, that enabling the CEA-852 protocol will disable the CEA-709
protocol and vice versa.
