    18.2 AXUM Network implementation The AXUM system communication, where you have to think of fader, knob data etc. is based on the protocol MambaNet. MambaNet may run over other protocols and this can be L2 and L3 protocols.

    18.3 Network design (MambaNet over Layer 2) An AXUM system require to have an own LAN (layer 2) to work without risk of interference with office networks and or other AXUM systems. The most basic way of describing this is: “Each Axum system requires its own Ethernet switch”.
