Host Name
Name of the device on the network. Up to 12 characters using only letters, numbers, or hyphens (no spaces or
special characters). Host name is auto populated when you assign an ID to the xNode providing a unique name.
You may customize this field if you desire.
Network Address
Network address: The IP address of the device, as configured either manually or via the Setup button or iProbe
software. The address can be changed here, but once you apply the changes, you will lose connection and will need
to connect to the device with the new IP address you just assigned.
You may also configure a management port. By default, NET2 address will be assigned to 0.0.0.0, which defines
the second port as a redundant network port. If you’d rather forsake redundancy for a separate management
port which does not pass L audio, then set an IP address for the NET2 field, then define which port is the
management port and which is the L port.
Mask
The netmask is a filter to which helps to define the subnetwork. This is a topic covered in networking material
widely available. For simplicity, a value of 255.0.0.0 is a wide open filter and a value of 255.255.255.254 is a very
narrow filter. If you are not familiar with how subnetting works, please refer to your network administrator. A value
of 255.255.255.0 is usually suitable for most cases.
