9.7 Add and configure IP (SPTS/MPTS) outputs
Configure a network interface for streaming (see also §12.1)
1. Go to Networking in the Settings tab, and select Add interface.
– For GN01 or GN40 mounting, add a new network interface for the streaming port.
– For GN50 mounting, add a new network interface to the backplane port.
2. Enter name for the interface, and IP parameters
3. Select Streaming ON, and click the “yellow tick” to save the settings
Note: with software 2.4.3 in Chameleon, and SW2.3 in the GT11 in GN50, you can configure streaming between
Chameleons installed in a GN50 without the GNSTR Software Option, see more in §9.8.

3. Select the Bitrate mode [CBR, VBR]
4. For CBR, set the output Bitrate (Mbit/s)
5. Set the TTL Time to live (hops). The default TTL=255 => no limit for the lifespan of data.
6. Select Network interface in the drop-down list.
7. Set the Destination address. For Multicast, use an address in the Multicast range. For Unicast, enter the
IP address of the receiving host.

Multicast vs. Unicast
Multicast or Unicast transmission is selected automatically by the address range used. In IPv4, addresses 224.0.0.0
through 239.255.255.255 are designated as multicast addresses. To stream Unicast, enter the IP address of the
receiving host.
