Mac address-on products and user-interfaces

PostThu Aug 05, 2021 7:41 am

Having several Blackmagic design products in a large network environment is trigger my request for the following. Please put the Mac-address on the outside of your products, preferably on the backside, near the network connector if possible. And please have your user interfaces show the mac-address as well. This would help a lot with setup/config time in larger networks. When adding a network device in our environment, we need to send the mac-address before hand to our network administrators, which is much easier, if you could read it on the outside of a product and/or in the device screen and/or in the configuration software.
Do this for all devices please.

I would find this helpful. I was in situation where the IT department had to open a port for my Mini Pro so I could stream. They needed the MAC Address for that.

I ended up taping it to the bottom of the device for future reference.

You NEED training.
You NEED a desktop.
You NEED a calibrated (non-computer) display.
