Creating a Physical Dante Network

A physical network is required to share Dante audio channels among Dante-enabled devices like those found in the
NetPA U 2002 SB. Other devices capable of sending and receiving audio over a Dante network must be on the same physical
network in order to communicate with Dante (see figure 10 below for an example of a Dante network).
