The configuration of the IP settings was moved to an XML file containing IP relevant parameters only. The file ipconfig.xml can be found in %ProgramData%\Vizrt\VizEngine.

Warning: When editing the XML file, do not delete any tags and only edit values between <tag> and </tag>.

This section contains information on the following topics:

General Settings

Setting	Description
AutoRecovery	When set to `true` , every change for parameters (either set by direct command or NMOS requests) is saved to the config file. When Viz Engine is restarted, those settings are used to configure the IP connectors.
Is07Receivers	Currently not in use.

SFP Settings

Setting	Description
IPv4Address	X.mio3: the static unicast IP v4 address used as source address and for the PTP connection. X.mio5: the static IP v4 address used for the PTP connection, if DHCP is disabled. Can be 0.0.0.0 otherwise.
IPV4Gateway	X.mio3: the static IP v4 gateway address used as source address and for the PTP connection. X.mio5: the static IP v4 gateway address used for the PTP connection, if DHCP is disabled. Can be 0.0.0.0 otherwise.
IPv4Netmask	X.mio3: the network subnet mask used for the source address and the PTP connection. X.mio5: the network subnet mask used for the PTP connection, if DHCP is disabled. Can be 0.0.0.0 otherwise.
Smpte2059SfpSettings::DhcpEnable	X.mio5 only: enables DHCP support for the SFP unicast PTP settings. X.mio3 and DSX LE 4 don't support DHCP and need static configuration using the fields described above.
Smpte2059SfpSettings::TypeOfServiceDSCP	Indicates that the Type of Service (ToS) is Differentiated Service Code Point (DSCP). Range is [0..63] (6 bits).
Smpte2059SfpSettings::DelayMechanism	Indicates the type of delay mechanism to use for the time server connection. 0 = Invalid 1 = EndToEnd 2 = PeerToPeer
Smpte2059SfpSettings::IpMode	Indicates the type of internet protocol mode to use for the time server connection. 0 = Invalid 1 = Multicast 2 = Unicast 3 = Hybrid
Smpte2059SfpSettings::MasterClockDomainNumber	Indicates the time server clock domain number to use.
Smpte2059SfpSettings::AnnounceReceiptTimeout	Number of 'Announce intervals' to wait: Range is [2..10] with a default of 6.
Smpte2059SfpSettings::JoinType	Indicates the type of membership request made. 0 = Invalid 1 = None 2 = IGMPv2 3 = IGMPv3
Smpte2059SfpSettings::IgmpV3Settings::FilterType	Only needed when the join type is set to 3 = IGMPv3. Indicates the filter type applied. 0 = Invalid 1 = Inclusion 2 = Exclusion
Smpte2059SfpSettings::IgmpV3Settings::FilterListCount	Indicates the number of IPv4 source addresses in the filter list. Maximum is four.
Smpte2059SfpSettings::IgmpV3Settings::FilterList	Indicates the list of IPv4 source addresses to filter separated by commas.

Important: The IPv4 settings for the source port on X.mio5 must be set in the Windows 10 network settings. If DHCP is not available on the essence network, static addresses must be used. Every SFP of an X.mio5 needs two unicast IPv4 addresses. One is for the PTP settings set in ipconfig.xml, and the other is set in the Windows 10 network settings, used as source address (for example, the address used in an IGMPv3 environment for source specific multi-casting).

Change IP Properties

Although the IP properties may be changed by editing the configuration file directly, the IP address and port numbers can also be set via the command line interface. Because channel numbering is zero-based here, Output Channel 1 is referred to as VIDEOOUT_0. To check the currently configured values call the command using GET (instead of SET) without parameters.
