General Info.

This is in no case an exhaustive configuration procedure, It's a simple guide on how to configure these switches to use them with Ravenna/AES67 networks.

Connecting several Cisco switches together requires additional configuration.
Please also see the Multiple network switches considerations page and Cisco SG300/350 Multiple switches configuration guide.

IMPORTANT NOTE ON IP ADDRESS RANGE :
The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) has directed the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) to reserve the following IPv4 address ranges for private networks:
192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255 / 172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255 / 10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255.
Private IPs should only be in these ranges (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_network )
