Repeat these steps until all Transcoders are connected to the network and configured with an appropriate
Stream
number.
NOTE:
Each Transcoders Stream number must be unique to all other Encoders on the network.
NOTE:
Screen-by-screen descriptions of the web interface options are provided for your reference in the
Encoder Configuration
Options
section on page 23
and the
Decoder Configuration Options
section on page 39
.
Step 3: Configuring N4321D IP address (if needed)
By default, all audio transceivers are preset to
DHCP
mode. When first connected to the network, an IP address is assigned
automatically based on the network DHCP server. If no DHCP server is found, the unit will use
Auto IP
mode (with an IP address
pre-configured to 169.254.xxx.xxx with a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0).
How IP Address Changes Affect Unit Control
As discussed previously, N-Able control is dependent upon the host computer being in the same IP address range as the N-Series
devices. Therefore, before making any N4321D IP address changes, we recommend having
two statically assigned IP addresses
on your computer
.
Configure the first IP address to be in the range of the default N-Series IP settings (i.e., in the 169.254.xxx.xxx range), AND
Configure a second IP address in the range of the IP address you are planning to assign to the units (or when using DHCP,
an address within the defined range for your network).
Changing IP Addresses
There are two ways to assign new IP addresses to your N4321D units using N-Able:
Option 1:
Log in to each unit individually and make the changes on the
Network > IP Setup
page.
Option 2:
Export a comma-separated value (CSV) file, make changes to all units in the resulting file, and import the CSV file
into N-Able to apply the changes.
Option 1: Assigning IP Addresses Individually (using the Network > IP Setup page)
1.
Find the unit you wish to change in the control matrix (either on the
Unit Management
tab or the
Audio Matrix
tab).
2.
Double-click the unit and log in.
3.
Go to the
Network
page and select
IP Setup
page make IP address changes for that unit either by setting a
STATIC
address or by
enabling
DHCP
