Networking Best Practices

Use the following best practices when setting up a network to ensure reliable communication:
• Always use a "star" network topology by connecting each component directly to the switch or router.
• Connect networked MXW gear to the same network and set to the same subnet. This ensures best system performance
and maximum microphone count.
• Use only 1 DHCP server per network. Disable DHCP addressing on additional servers.
• Power on the switch and DHCP server prior to MXW equipment.
• To expand the network, use multiple Ethernet switches in a star topology.
• Connect each device directly to the port of an Ethernet switch. Avoid "daisy-chaining" Ethernet port connections between
devices for larger networks.
• Do not loop network connections.
• All devices must be at the same firmware revision level.
