Isolated LAN
The simplest network topology for Command 360 is an isolated AV LAN. In this design, a single NIC is used on each device to create an isolated (“air gapped”) system. The system has no direct connection to the enterprise network or the internet.
Advantages
Highly predictable performance
Simple IP addressing and traffic control
Strong security posture due to network isolation
Easy to configure and validate locally before deployment
Disadvantages
No UI access from enterprise workstations
No remote support
System updates require local access
Later addition of enterprise sources may require a system redesign
Limited Internet Access with CineAgent
If this solution seems appropriate but access to external websites is required, CineAgent 4 or CineAgent 16 appliances may be introduced. These dual-NIC devices allow website access while preserving isolation between the AV LAN and external (see Isolated LAN with CineAgent).
