Appendix A: Network Requirements

Savant requires the use of business class/commercial grade network equipment throughout the network to ensure the reliability of communication between

devices. These higher quality components also allow for more accurate troubleshooting when needed.

Connect all Savant devices to the same local area network (LAN) or subnet as the Host. Savant recommends not implementing any type of trac or packet

shaping in your network topology for the Savant devices as this may interfere with performance.

Network Conﬁguration

To ensure that the IP Address will not change due to a power outage, a static IP Address such as DHCP reservation should be conﬁgured. Savant

recommends using DHCP reservation within the router. By using this method, static IP Addresses for all devices can be managed from a single UI avoiding

the need to access devices individually.

Setting DHCP reservation varies from router to router. Refer to the documentation for the router to conﬁgure DHCP reservation.

Network Changes

The Pro Remote requires resetting network credentials after moving to a new network, changing routers, or if the IP Address range is changed in the current

router.

Reset Wi-Fi Credentials

Follow the instructions in section 7.1 Reset Wi-Fi to reset the Wi-Fi credentials on the Remote.

For more information on general device networking recommendations, refer to the Savant Device Networking Guidelines article, available on the Savant

Community.
