SAME DSP-Engines can discover NMOS devices that are available on the network. STAGE relies on an external NMOS Registry to do this. First, you must configure STAGE’s connection to the NMOS Registry; see chapter System Configuration #NMOS-Discovery.
Once this has been configured, discovered NMOS hosts appear in Registration #Discovered-Hosts.
In order to configure an NMOS host, it must first be registered in STAGE. See chapter Registration. NMOS host configuration is limited. You can:
-
Edit its name and description.
-
Assign a network scope to individual Network interfaces.
All other host configuration parameters are read-only in STAGE; this configuration information comes from the NMOS host having been configured by its third-party software, or by the NMOS Registry.

Network Scope |
Set the type of traffic to exchange on this interface. See also chapter Network Architecture for more information about the different network types used by STAGE. See also chapter Network Scopes for more information about how to configure the different network scopes used by STAGE.
When two network interfaces are set to the same network scope, STAGE assumes that the network is capable of routing packets between those interfaces. That is, if you have one sender on a network scope and a receiver on the same network scope, then the network will pass multicast traffic flows between these hosts. This setting must represent the real world network topography for each host. |

This section provides information about the selected NMOS device. This information is read-only and is for informational purposes only.
The user also sets up the preferred control endpoints for this NMOS Device. STAGE automatically selects reachable control endpoints for NMOS Hosts when they are registered, but the user can manually change this endpoint later. A status indicator shows whether the selected endpoint is available or not. |
