5 AXC-SWD5G ON AVS-MONITOR 5.1 Control Panel View Your SWD5G card is fully functional for the AVS-Monitor version 4.0.14 or further. This software allows you to monitor and configure your new hardware. Fig 2: AVS-Monitor Control Panel The above Fig 2, is an example of a running AxC-SWD5G as it will appear on the AVS-Monitor “Control” panel. For each port, this panel allows you to monitor the auto-negotiate speed and the attributed VLANs. -

Click on the “ADD” line on the table to set a new VLAN. Then fill an ID number from 2 to 4096 and select a colour (for an easier check-up of your setup). By validating the “SET” button, you will see your new VLAN appear in the VLAN table (Fig 3), where the relation between ports and VLAN is made. - Page 11 Link lost! RSTP Bridge 1 RSTP Bridge 2 RSTP Bridge 3 Fig 7: A simple loop network with RSTP As shown in Fig 7, if a link failure appears on the link between Bridge 1 and 2, bridge 1 will open its port on the link with bridge 3 in order to communicate with bridge 2.
- Page 12 All MSTP bridges on a network must have the same STP_ID attributed to the same VLAN ID. Normalisations use many others parameters, they will be accessible upon request: contact AuviTran teams (Available soon). Please refer to the section 6 to find some network architectures examples using RSTP or MSTP.

6 Network architectures The audio ToolBox by AuviTran allows you to exchange your audio data between a various set of protocols. The possibilities are huge, but in order to help you to wisely setup your perfect sound network, this chapter contains few examples of the use of AuviTran hardware. - Page 14 192ch over Ethernet Soundcraft M7CL48-ES Digico mixer mixer mixer 64ch 64ch 64ch 192ch over Dante 2,3,4 In a RSTP loop Fig 10: 192 channels over Dante The above Fig 10 shows the schematic of a 192ch over Dante network between two ToolBoxes. As shown above (Fig. 7 and 8) a RSTP loop is pictured.

Page 16: Frequently Asked Questions
Also keep in mind that AxP-BD and AxP-BU must be coupled as they use different wave lengths for bidirectional transmission/reception to work together in a single optical fiber. Once these adjustments achieved, if your system is still non- operational, please contact AuviTran team. Why do I get some trouble to connect my Dante network with commercial switches? The Green Ethernet capability of your switches must be deactivated to be fully compatible with the Dante protocol.
