• Public Network - This is the default configuration of an In-Home network. If
you do not want to change the settings on your network, the network
configuration protocol will configure all the adapters automatically. By default,
all adapters are EPs and have a public (empty) network ID. If the protocol
does not detect an AP in the channel, it will change an EP to act as an AP. All
EPs will connect directly to the automatic AP if they can, or to an EP that will
act as a repeater. Then the network will be established.
• Private Network - To configure a private network (to ensure data privacy),
a network ID must be assigned to all adapters on the network using the
configuration tool. It is recommended to configure a fixed AP (for
example the adapter with the video server or Internet access). If the fixed AP is
turned off or is not defined, the network configuration protocol
will select an EP to change to function as an AP (automatic), in order to
configure the network.
4.2.1 Single-Network Scenarios
The following two sections show examples of a single In-Home AV network.
4.2.1.1 Local Area Network Using Two AV200 Powerline Ethernet Wall
Mount Adapters
The picture below shows a simple PLC (Powerline) network where two wall mount
adapters are used to make a local area connection available to all outlets of the
house. This is the simplest type of network, where no QoS (Quality of Service)
configuration is required.
