II Micro – Operation Manual
To overcome this limitation, a VLAN for the eth0 port may be created and the management GUI accessed anywhere in the
streaming network. The VLAN tag assigned to the Device is likewise assigned to a convenient switch port. In the example
in
Figure 1-16, the streaming port eth4 is assigned a new virtual port name or
Tag
of 123. The physical switch port in the
streaming network has a port tagged with the same Tag name 123 and thus any PC connected to this specific switch port may
access the Device on the address assigned for it, which in this example is 192.168.0.23, the usual default address. Traffic of
the streaming network is not sent to the port tagged 123 and likewise, traffic for management is only routed to the port tagged
123.
12.6.3 Streaming Network VLAN
In the same way that management traffic is partitioned to appear only on the management VLAN switch port, VLANs may be
created to partition streaming traffic segments also. An example is shown in Figure 1-17. Three VLANs are created and all
stream from the same Ethernet port eth1. Network trunk ports pass the streams and they exit from the predefined switch which
is ‘tagged’ with the assigned VLAN tags.
Procedure
1. The virtual IP address is configured using the mkip SSH shell menus.
2. Streaming content is assigned to the created virtual interface.
3. The switch port is tagged with the VLAN tag name or number.
4. The content that is assigned to the virtual interface is ‘tagged’ with the name/number and then only appears at the
switch port with a corresponding tag.
