Example 2: Switched and isolated network configuration
NOTE: It is immaterial, in this example, which codec is the encoder and which is the
decoder. These functions are not identified in figure 7.
Figure 7 shows two VNC 325 codecs that are configured to work across two switched and
isolated networks. Codec 1 is configured as the controller, via LAN port 2.
This example consists of two networks, connected to the VN-Matrix system as follows:
• Network 1, connected to LAN port 1 (RJ-45 port), the “green” network — This
network is separated from the streaming network. This network also can be used for
system control and monitoring if preferred.
NOTE: The controller codec responds to inquiries on LAN port 1 as well as LAN
port 2.
• Network 2, connected to LAN port 2 (the fiber optic port), the “red” network —
The encoder streams video on this network and it is also used for system control and
monitoring.
NOTE: Selection of this network for streaming is via the built-in HTML network
interface. This selection is defined in the management interface, described
later (see “Configure Encoders or Decoders“).
• A network management server can also be integrated if required.
