MoIP configuration for AN-920 Switches

Araknis 920 switch Easy MoIP Setup

OvrC provides a CONFIGURE MOIP SYSTEM button on the Details page of Araknis 920 switches.

Caution: Easy MoIP Setup configures the switch to be an IGMP querier and should only be used for Core MoIP Switches. Secondary MoIP switches must be configured manually using the Araknis 920 switch guide.

Use the Select ports drop-down to designate which ports have B-960 devices connected to them. For example:

  • Include ports with B-960 Transmitters, Receivers, and Transceivers.

  • Exclude uplink ports to other switches and the MoIP Controller.

Then click APPLY.

Note: 960 MoIP devices must be connected to an Araknis 920 switch.

Enable these settings for every Araknis 620 and 920 switch on the network.
