Network configuration
On a redundant shared storage (SAN) K2 Summit Production Client, you must
connect both ports of the control team. Connect control network connection A to port
1 and control network connection B to port 4. You must also connect both media
ports. Connect port 2 to the A media network and port 3 to the B media network. The
media ports must not be teamed, as doing so interferes with failover functionality.
Refer to the K2 SAN Installation and Service Manual for more information.
Network configuration
This section contains instructions for configuring network connections as follows:
• “About network functionality”
• “About modifying or restoring network settings”

About network functionality
K2 networks support the following:
• Remote control and configuration of the internal storage K2 system using
AppCenter from a Control Point PC.
• Remote control of the internal storage K2 system using devices and applications
software developed for the K2 system that use industry standard remote control
protocols over Ethernet.
• Stream media transfers between K2 systems and other supported Grass Valley
systems. Streaming transfers allow loading and playing a clip before the transfer is
complete.
• Standard data network capability.
• General networking tasks such as file sharing and mapping network drives.
