Configuring a Dual-NIC MCU

The SCOPIA Elite MCU can be configured to work as a dual-NIC device, improving security by
enabling the management data to be on a separate subnet from the media and signaling.
Media refers to the actual content of the video call: audio, video and data presentations.
Management data refers to messages of coordination, control and monitoring, like between your
web browser and the MCU for configuration, or between the MCU and the SCOPIA
iVIEW Management Suite for call coordination. Management signals are sent in protocols like
HTTP , XML, SNMP and so on.
Separating these types of data on different subnets improves security because management data
typically remains on subnets within the enterprise, while the media of video calls is often required
to traverse firewalls and reach endpoints outside the enterprise.
Dual-NIC functionality requires two subnets, where each subnet must have its own router or
default gateway.
