2.1.6.1 RAV2SAP
ALC NetworX has released the RAVENNA-2-SAP converter (RAV2SAP), a freeware tool
between RAVENNA and Dante discovery method. It translates selected stream announcements from
one side to the other and makes the SDP data available accordingly. It also features manual SDP data
entry and read-out and can thus help to diagnose any connection problems or integrate any devices
which do not support RAVENNA or SAP.
RAV2SAP is a Windows application which needs to run on a PC which is connected to the audio
network. RAV2SAP only monitors and transmits discovery and SDP-related data traffic, no audio is
passed through the PC (unless your PC also hosts an AES67-capable virtual sound card).

2.2.1
IP configuration
Select the method of IP assignment: DHCP, Zeroconf, manual / static. In case of static IP assignment,
make sure you don't assign any IP address twice and that the subnet mask matches your intended
network configuration. In some cases, a gateway needs to be configured (even if it won't be used). If
no gateway is present, just enter the IP address of one of your switches. An Excel spreadsheet helps
tracking IP configuration. If you prefer automatic IP configuration, check if IP parameters have been
properly assigned through DSCP or Zeroconf.
