Hello All,
I'm trying to transport Dante audio through a VPLS tunnel. Setup:
The two RB2011s are running RouterOS 6.45.5. Dante Endpoints are AVIO input and outputs, based on the Ultimo chipset. Audio is routed as unicast, only the Dante control and PtPv1 clocking are multicast.
There is a direct (gigabit ethernet) connection between the two RB2011s.
In Dante controller I see that the network latency is usually around 2 miliseconds, but occasionally spikes to over 100ms. This results in a slight drop of audio. Dante controller reports no out of sync issues, the output device is clock master.
Bandwidth is 3-4Mbit/sec.
The VPLS tunnel is setup based on the guidelines in the following article: https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Transpar ... using_MPLS
I started this config out of a freshly resetted router, but created a separate bridge where the VPLS tunnel interface and ethernet ports to the Dante devices are in.
Does anyone have any ideas what is causing the occasional hickup in the network?
Many thanks already!
Stijn
