Connecting with Fuse-IP Bonding

Fuse-IP is a proprietary Tieline IP bonding technology which aggregates data by bonding multiple IP
interfaces (peers) and establishing a "tunnel" between two Tieline codecs. A streaming connection
can be established after the tunnel is created. Fuse-IP automatically distributes data over any two
bonded interfaces, which may include:
· Dual Ethernet LAN ports.
· An Ethernet LAN port and a Wi-Fi* dongle. (*Not in first release)
There are several benefits in using Fuse-IP to aggregate data from multiple IP interfaces, including:
· The ability to create more stable connections with higher overall data bandwidth.
· Greater choice of encoding algorithms because of higher available bandwidth.
· Redundancy in case one IP connection is lost.
How does Fuse-IP work?
Fuse-IP is another Via interface you can use to dial, similar to selecting a LAN interface.
Fuse-IP requires one codec to be a server and the other a client. Normally the remote codec is
configured as the client and the studio codec is the server, because it's easier to dial static IP
addresses configured at the studio than cellular, Wi-Fi or LAN interfaces at the remote site. Like
SmartStream PLUS redundant streaming, two IP interfaces can be used at the studio for additional
redundancy.
Prerequisites
Version 2.16.xx firmware is required to use Fuse-IP. Before configuring Fuse-IP you need:
· The IP address (or addresses) for the codec acting as the server at the studio.
· The serial number of the server codec to which you are connecting using Fuse-IP.
