Edit presets of the MA Network Switch
It is useful to apply presets to ports for a higher network performance or for safety reasons, e.g. to block Telnet.
A preset contains collection of filters. For more information about filter see the MA Network Switch manual.
Presets are used to allow or to block the selected output.
If a preset is set to allow (= green), the network packets matching the filters in the preset are allowed. All other network packets not matching the filters of this preset, will be blocked.
If a preset is set to block (= red), the network packets matching the filters in the presets are blocked. All other network packets not matching the filters of this preset, will be allowed.
Presets are applied in the outbound as well as in the inbound network traffic of the specific physical connector.
There are seven predefined presets available:
- MA-Net2
- dot2-Net
- Art-Net
- MA-Remote
- MA-Net1
- grandMA2
- sACN
