Ethernet port 2

Will the control only work with ethernet port 1?

Thanks,

Hi,

What do you mean by "ethernet port 2" ?

The artist series units I'm familiar with only have 1 ethernet port.

Sorry. The MacPro has 2 Ethernet ports. I was wondering if it´s better to put the Artist units on the second port to avoid putting them on the same network as the entire internet traffic?
When I set PT to use port 2 the unit isn´t found. Port two has the identical settings (DHCP, automatic).

Not sure if that´s even necessary.

Thanks,

Frank.

Ah.

It can be made to work with either port. Some specific configuration may be required. Fraid I don't know what happens if you simply leave defaults, and hope for the best.

hm. some configuration may be required.

I wonder how such info could be obtained. There´s nothing in the manual AFAIK.

But if it´s not necessary I´ll just leave it on port one with digidelivery, email etc. etc. and hope for the best.

Thanks,

Frank.

It should be fine - the volume of traffic is minimal.
