Step 2: Installing a Network Switch
IP addresses
Set the IP addresses according to the following table. In safety priority or uncompressed transmission priority operation
mode, assign unique main and sub IP addresses.
The network addresses are as follows.
Main: 192.168.10.0/24
Sub: 192.168.11.0/24
Set the host addresses as described in the following table.
•
In cost priority mode, the same network switch IP address must be configured for two VLANs (OR1 and OR2). The
network switch IP address is set to the following values by loading a switch setup file.
OR1: 192.168.10.254
OR2: 192.168.10.253
•
After the overall system structure has been determined, it is recommended that you prepare a list of the IP address
assignments for each device as an aid when installing devices.
•
If connecting to a network other than an OR, takes precautions to provide network security.
•
Do not connect to the Internet. To connect to the Internet, contact your Sony sales representative.
