Configuring channel IP I/O

IP Input/Output configuration for channels provided via K2 Summit IP codec boards is performed via the Channel IP I/O Configuration menu.

  • Only IPv4 Addressing is supported at this time. The user interface forces IPv4 Address entries to conform to certain value ranges:

  • If the first octet value is less than 1, the entry is converted to 1.x.x.x
  • An entry of 127.x.x.x is converted to 126.x.x.x
  • For IP Address fields that can only have unicast values such as the Local IP Address, first octet values greater than 223 are converted to 223.x.x.x
  • For IP Address fields that can have multicast values such as the Input/Receiver and Output/Remote IP Addresses, first octet values greater than 239 are converted to 239.x.x.x
  • The middle two octets are converted to the 0 to 255 range in the event that under-range or over-range values are entered.
  • If the first octet value is greater than 254, the entry is converted to 254.x.x.x
  • If the last octet value is greater than 254, the entry is converted to x.x.x.254
  • Each Channel of a K2 Summit IP codec board provides one 10GigE SFP+ interface. The Local IP Address is a unicast IP Address that is used as the Source IP Address for all IP packets transmitted via the Channel's 10GigE interface. The Ethernet MAC Address is a read-only value for the 10GigE port's unique MAC Address.

Input

  • The 10GigE port supports three SMPTE 2022-6 media stream receivers. In the Input section, each receiver can be configured to input one SMPTE 2022-6 media stream via a unicast IP address or multicast group. While configuration information for all three receivers is always accessible, the number of receivers actively in use will depend on the Channel Type currently configured as shown in the table below.
Table 1. SMPTE 2022-6 media stream receiver configuration
Channel Type Receiver 1 Receiver 2 Receiver 3
Player/Recorder X X    
Player/Recorder (with IP Redundancy Enabled) X   X
3D/Video + Key Recorder X X  
2x Multi-Cam Recorder X X  
3x Multi-Cam Recorder X X X
  • The UDP Port Number field for each receiver can be used to filter SMPTE 2022-6 media streams by UDP Port Number.
  • The valid range for the UDP Port Number field is 0 and 1025 to 65534. The default UDP Port Number setting of "0" is a special value that disables UDP Port Number based filtering. In this case, the receiver will accept SMPTE 2022-6 streams regardless of the Destination UDP Port Number value set for the media stream.

Output

  • The 10GigE port supports three SMPTE 2022-6 media stream transmitters. In the Output section, each transmitter can be configured to output one SMPTE 2022-6 media stream to a unicast IP address or multicast group. Each transmitter can be enabled or disabled via the corresponding Transmitter On/Off setting. The first transmitter will output a copy of the Channel's "SDI OUT1" content and the second transmitter will output a copy of the Channel's "SDI OUT2". The content at these outputs will depend on the operating state of the Channel, whether it is playing, recording, whether E-to-E is enabled, etc. The third transmitter is only used for the IP Redundancy feature as described in the Using IP Redundancy topic.
  • The UDP Port Number field for each transmitter can be used to configure the Destination UDP Port Number for the media stream output by the transmitter. The valid range for the UDP Port Number field is 1025 to 65534.
