\ACTUAL EXAM Dante Level 2
Wide Area Network Connects the network across a wider geographical
(WAN) area. Is reached through a router (gateway)
What kind of notation do Dotted-Quad or Dot Decimal Notation
IP Addresses use?
Subnet A group of local IP addresses
Helps determine what IP addresses are in our subnet
Should be an unbroken string of binary ones followed
Subnet Mask by zeros
A subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 can be abbreviated as
"/24"
What is the range of 0-255
numbers for IP addresses
in dotted-quad form?
,When Dante sends media Unicast or Multicast
across a network, which
can be used? (select two)
- Unicast
- Multicast
- Broadcast
A tool for managing multicast traffic
IGMP Snooping
Without IGMP Snooping, Multicast behaves like
Broadcast
One-to-one transmission that can cross a router for
transmission
Signal must be duplicated to send to multiple
Unicast
destinations, which can cause strain on transmitters
and switches
Best latency performance
One-to-all transmission that does not cross the router
(contained to LAN)
Broadcast
Generally used for locating devices (DHCP) rather
than a means for communication
One-to-many transmission that does not cross the
router (contained to LAN)
Multicast Transmissions will only go to destinations that need
the communications
Better bandwidth management as channel count rises
, Keeps the master list of where all the Multicast
subscriptions go
IGMP Querier
Only one switch should be assigned as the IGMP
Querier
Which versions of IGMP IGMP Snooping v2 or v3
Snooping are supported
by Dante?
Latency for Unicast Greater than or equal to 0.25 msec
Latency for Multicast Greater than or equal to 1.00 msec
How many audio channels 4 channels (24-bit, 48kHz, 1msec latency)
are sent in a Unicast
package?
How many audio channels 8 channels
are sent in a Multicast
package?
How much bandwidth 5-6 Mbps
does a Unicast flow take
up?
How Dante interfaces manage resources for
Dante Flows
subscriptions
Establishes queues to prioritize some traffic over
others
Quality of Service (QoS)
The switch evaluates a "DSCP" tag
Which type of data is Clocking
assigned the highest
priority?
Which type of data is Audio / Video Data
assigned medium priority?
Which type of data is Control Data
assigned low priority?
, Which type of data is All data outside of Clocking, Audio / Video, and
assigned "best effort" Control Data (eg. Emails)
priority?
Values assigned to incoming packages to describe
priority level
DSCP Tag
Different tag values can be associated with priority
levels 1-4, with 4 being highest priority and 1 being
lowest priority
When using a converged network with non-Dante
traffic so that the Dante traffic can be prioritized
When should QoS be
When ports are becoming saturated
considered?
Helps 100Mbps ports to prioritize clocking and
reduce jitter
Should QoS be set to Strict Priority
Round Robin mode or
Strict Priority mode? Always serves the highest priority queue first
One device follows the clock pulse of another device
Time Division Multiplexing
(TDM) Works fine for two devices, but not for a full-scale
system
What is the ideal means Use an external clock and distribute that to all devices
for clocking?
Video / Word Clock is like the pendulum of a clock,
giving the pace for processing frames or sample
Video / Word Clock vs
Time Code
Time Code is like the face of a clock, giving you a
position on a timeline
