* In order to simplify configuration, a text based example configuration file can be uploaded for both the Cisco and Artel ARG
Quarra Switches for use with AoIP/AES67 Network devices. These can be found at
The configuration files both allow the switch to operate in the 192.168.30/24 for Primary AoIP port and 192.168.31/24 Secondary
AoIP port address ranges and can be adapted as required.
