Aiphone IS IP Network Requirement Documents User Manual

							Network Hardware
The Aiphone IS Series has components that are capable of working on an IP network. The IP enabled door stations are 
the IS-IPDV and IS-IPDVF. The IP enabled master station is the IS-IPMV, and the PC master station is the IS-SOFT. 
There are also optional control units, the IS-IPC and the IS-CCU, that c\
an connect several non-IP stations to a network to 
reduce the number of IP addresses required. This is a summary of the requirements from an IT perspective.
The IS IP devices require a wired connection to a network, but after that point there is flexibility on the choice of hardware 
and media. Some requirements to keep in mind are:
• PoE is recommended for the IS-IPDV, IS-IPDVF, and IS-IPMV. The IS-SOFT, PC master station software, can be 
installed on a computer using a wired, Wireless G, or Wireless N connect\
ion.
•  Enterprise networks require Layer 3 switches or routers to route IGMP data. When there are multiple VLANs or 
routing between IS devices on separate subnets, the network must route I\
GMP data or several features will not work.  
•  Global systems require NAT routers at each Site. If these devices will connect via the internet, each  Site will need to 
have a Host and each Host will need to be behind a NAT configured router (see page 2 for more details). 
Network Layout
A network design can be as simple as a PoE switch or it could be an enter\
prise network with several routers and layer 3 
switches connecting buildings in a campus. After configuring a system like this, some features (like unit scans, video, and 
paging) may require additional configuration steps on the networking hardware before they will function as intended. Sites 
requiring more than 32 stations can use the IS-IPC control units with IS hardwire products (IS-CCU, IS-MV , IS-DV) to 
reduce the number of IP addresses required.

Multicasts: Searches, Video, Paging and Chimes
The IS system uses Multicasts to efficiently send video and paging announcements to many group members. Networks 
that use multiple subnets will typically require additional work beyond \
setting up subnets, VLANs, and routing between 
subnets. Multicasts are capable of being routed, but are not routed by d\
efault on any typical Layer 3 switch or router.
Multicast packets can be routed using PIM (Protocol Independent Multicast). Deciding which protocol and which method 
to use for a particular network layout and configuring that method is beyond the scope of this document. Please refer to 
the documentation of the layer 3 switch or router or the manufacturer fo\
r instructions.
Networks that cannot route Multicasts should use a Global System configuration (see page 2 for more details).  Example network

							Sites in a Global System
Each Host will have a unique list of ports to be forwarded, depending on\
 the composition of the system. When a Site has 
been completely programmed, go to  IP unit registration and click the Port forwarding setting  button to see what ports 
will be required for the  Site. The example Site Enterprise-A is shown below.
Ports
There are a variety of reasons why a Global System configuration should be implemented.  These include: 
•  Exceeding the 32 IP address limit for a Site, (1 Host and 31 Clients)
•  Devices using separate internet connections that are not connected by a \
VPN
•  Some portion of the network hardware does not support IGMP routing, such as a fiber link, a VPN, or a router
