Network Settings

Control Network Tab

AVB Settings Tab

This allows adjustment of the AVB Peer Delay Threshold. This may require adjusting to a minimum value of 10,000ns if media converters are used to connect audio the expander(s) and audio dropouts or artifacting is being experienced. The setting used should also be matched in the server device and can be set using the AVB Settings of the Device Maintenance Network Settings dialog. 

  

  

MAC Address Tab

Displays the MAC address(es) of the expander device.
