Title: LM44 Dante/Control network setup
Post by: Andrew Broughton on April 24, 2024, 04:32:50 PM
Does anyone know if it's possible to make one RJ45 on the Lake LM44 for Dante and other for control? I'd prefer to not have them on the same cable for simplicity.

You could run it in daisy chain mode and have one cable for each, though either port would still work for both dante and/or control, there is no way to isolate the different networks to specific physical ports.

Darn.
So, the manual says "For a technical reference of the Ethernet Port, please refer to section 7.3. Additional information is available in the Lake Network Configuration Guide."

I have not been able to find this elusive "Network Configuration Guide". Anyone have a link?



N/M - I found it in the controller's Documentation folder. I concur that separating the networks isn't that easy. I could maybe leave it in redundant and use the primary for control (without connecting to the Dante network) and the secondary for Dante... I've never tested the theory though if a single device can be on secondary while the rest of the network is primary or it's all-or-nothing...
