4. Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol DHCP is a TCP IP service that you can use to set network clients TCP IP configurations automatically as they attach to the network This configuration is done by providing the DHCP server with one or more scopes A scope is nothing more than a range of IP addresses that may be assigned to clients on a temporary basis The length of time that a client is allowed to use an IP address from a DHCP server is called the client s lease period As you can see DHCP eliminates the need to manually configure each client it also helps to prevent duplicate IP addresses and can help to conserve IP addresses when they re in short supply However for DHCP to function correctly and efficiently on large networks proper planning is essential If it is set up improperly DHCP can cause headaches As mentioned earlier DHCP automatically configures clients for TCP IP at the time the clients attach to the network Obviously this process doesn t happen by magic Getting DHCP to configure a client for use on a network requires several messages to be passed back and forth across the network Although these messages tend to be small if many clients are attempting to get an IP address at the same time the excessive traffic created can slow down the network One way of dealing with this problem is to limit each DHCP server to servicing only one specific subnet By doing so you ll isolate each subnet s DHCP related traffic and pr

The Mixing console is the section where all the audio processing takes place The I O Matrix is a very advanced matrix which gives you not only the possibility to route the busses to the outputs but also the possibility to route any input directly to an output without interference from the Mixing Console The modules external 1 2 come from the l O Matrix and enter the Mixing Console where the audio is processed and routed to the busses The busses exit the Mixing console to there dedicated outputs and back to the I O Matrix where they can be routed to any output Mixing Console 3 bands EQ Fader 1 ON1 x Modulet EQ Dyn 44 6 p gt D opo E BERE 3 1 ONg Feder Module8 Q Dyn Le 6 gt 4 X Extern LLLI d Aux Extern2 pre post p B Prog PAPI CRM y Sub cr s Aux CF2 S CRM MODULES ze E N 1A Aux S N IB EXT1 2 VO Matrix INPUT FROM CONNECTORS A iar 16 Cob t Input zog 4 MIC 7 Analog 7 Digital Ethernet Bk sg ANAT Phns N e a E o L y c 4 Y a i c a i o i dms aw 8 8s zis Zz i290 I mes 315 HH o L IT a o EXT1 EXT2 I B L o i z
