I am gearing up for a university install of about 30 rooms. Each will have a DMPS-300-C. I know these use two IP addresses and that Crestron recommends PNM. What are the disadvantages of PNM other than having to go through the switcher to manage Tx's and Rx's??
I assume that if I use the LAN port on an endpoint (for a Projector), it connects to the same network that the DM switcher card is on, and not behind the NAT?
Does anyone find using different subnets for each room useful? For example:
192.168.11.xx for Room 1
192.168.12.xx for Room 2 etc.
This way, I can say that every DMPS-300-C is 192.168.xx.5 and so on.?
The classrooms are not connected to each other from an AV standpoint. But, I would like to be able to manage all of them simultaneously.?
