Interactive Technologies, Inc. CueServer 2 User's Manual - 18.5.18
Network Mode
On CueServers with only a single Ethernet jack, this option is fixed to "Single LAN".
On CueServers with two Ethernet jacks, two different options are available in this menu:
Option 1: Single LAN with Built-In Ethernet Switch
When this mode is selected (which is the factory default), the two Ethernet jacks are simply two ports of a
built-in Ethernet switch, both of which are connected to the CueServer. In this configuration, either one of
the two jacks can be connected to the local network, and the other jack can be used as an extra port for
connecting a laptop, DMX node, CueStation Hub or any other network device. All of the CueServer
management and lighting control data flows over this single LAN connection.
Option 2: Dual LANs with Separate IP Addresses
When this mode is selected, the two Ethernet jacks become two separate LAN ports, each of which have
their own network settings. The jack marked "A" is used to connect to a device management network. LAN
"A" can be used for device discovery, configuration editing, and has access to the web interface. The jack
marked "B" will have a different IP address and is used for lighting control data. LAN "B" is where DMX-
over-Ethernet protocols such as sACN, Art-Net, and KiNET are flowing. LAN "B" can also be used for device
discovery, configuration editing, and has access to the web interface.
