Hello
I am trying to connect 2 pairs of Teranex Mini IP Video 12G over a simple network using 2 Cisco C9300 48P switches.
The manual is rather vague as to specific switch setups needs.
"About Network Switches
When connecting to a network switch, we recommend using a managed switch with PTP
precision time protocol and E2E end to end enabled. This type of network switch lets you
change the configuration to suit your network requirements, for example prioritizing traffic for
smoother data flow and improved reliability.
If you are connecting to a network switch with VLAN functionality, ensure VLAN is disabled.
Non managed network switches can still be used. However, without the IGMP management
systems enabled, a destination unit may be getting traffic from several sources, thus exceeding
its port’s bandwidth.
NOTE The number of IP video streams you can have routed on your network depends
on the bandwidth of your network switch. Refer to the your network switch’s
manufacturer specifications for more information."
My issue is that when the boxes are connected to the network, they seem to flood the network, bringing it to its knees but they do not see each other.
The manual mentions to turn off VLANs ,but most pro switches have at least one VLAN just to work. Is this an issue? (I would have a tendency to have a VLAN dedicated to these boxes so that it limits the choices of connection.)
What version of IGMP is being used?
https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/s ... _0110.html
For a sophisticated switch like the Cisco, are the default ptp settings sufficient or is there a more optimised setup?

Any help would be most welcome
