operate.

Isolating Audio and Control Networks
When connecting to corporate or public networks, the MXW system can be configured to isolate audio network from the control
network. This protects the audio from distributing to the entire network and significantly decreases network traffic.
TheMXWAudioNetworkInterface(ANI)canbesettoUplinkmodetodedicateoneofitsnetworkportsasacontrolonlycon
nection. Uplink mode blocks multicast traffic from Port 4 of the ANI, restricting network audio and Shure Discovery data.
Because the device will not show up in the Shure Device Discovery application, the IP address of the control software must be
recorded to access the server.
Record the IP address of the ANI.
Connect Port 4 of the ANI to the network.
Open the ANI in the control software.
Go to the Preferences tab.
Under the Network panel, change Port 4 Mode to Uplink.
