AvediaStream e2635/e3635 and e2655/e3655 Encoders V1.1
Administrator’s Guide 23
Device IP addressing
You can configure the encoder to obtain an IP address automatically using DHCP, or you can
specify static addressing information i.e. IP address, subnet mask and default gateway.
Note: After applying an IP addressing change, this change takes effect after a short time and
the device starts using the new IP address. No reboot is necessary.
To configure the encoder to be allocated an IP address automatically:
1. Click Network.
2. In the IP Address Configuration section, select DHCP (Automatic) from the IP Address
Settings drop down list.
3. Click the Apply button.
To configure a static IP address:
1. Click Network.
2. In the IP Address Configuration section, select Static (use below) from the IP Address
Settings drop down list.
3. Specify values for IP Address, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway, DNS Server.
4. Click the Apply button.
Ethernet settings
The encoder can automatically negotiate any combination of 10/100 Mbps and half/full duplex
with an Ethernet switch. It is also possible to disable auto-negotiation, resulting in a fixed
setting of 100Mbps full duplex (100FD).
The default setting is On (Auto-negotiation enabled).
It is important to ensure that the encoder settings match the settings on the switch port to
which the encoder is connected. If this is not the case, the result can be dropped packets
causing breakup of audio/video.
In practice this means the AvediaStream encoder and the connected network switch should be
configured for operation as follows:
Auto-negotiation enabled on both the AvediaStream encoder and the connected
network switch.
Auto-negotiation disabled on both the AvediaStream encoder and the connected
network switch, and a fixed setting of 100FD (Full Duplex) configured on the switch.
It is not recommended that the encoder is connected to a half duplex Ethernet port.
To enable/disable Ethernet auto-negotiation:
1. Click Network.
2. In the Network Port Configuration section, choose On or Off as appropriate from the Auto-
negotiation dropdown box.
3. Click the Apply button.
