ALL Linn DS/DSM products support 100Base-T excluding the Klimax DSM/3 that supports 1GBase-T connections and used on standard Networks
Contents
Supported networks
- Private - standard non-public IPs (192.168 / 10/0, 172.xxx) NATd to internet if required
- Domestic - single household setup (no VLANs etc)
- Ethernet - IEEE802.3 compliant (No jumbo frames.)
Services, ports, protocols
- The Services, ports and protocols are used by the Linn app and players in the network
- Services
- UPnP & SSDP (Linn DS/DSM discovery and control)
- Port 1900 (UDP)
- Port 2869 (TCP),
- Ports 49152-65535 (both TCP & UDP)

- DHCP
- Ports 67, 68 (UDP)
- DHCP
- ODP (OpenHome Device Protocol)
- TCP on an ephemeral port
- ODP (OpenHome Device Protocol)
Managed Switches
- Make sure they are programmed to work in Layer-2 mode
Routers/DHCP Servers
- Recommend a weekly scheduled reboot of these devices.
Jumbo packet/frames networking
- This is not an official standard and is not supported by the Linn DS/DSM.
Multicast or Unicast
If you are using more than six Linn DS/DSM products on the same network and want to share/Songcast the music to other rooms, then make sure the LAN can support multicasting.
If you have issues with your Routers, check:
- QoS is turned OFF (some Routers do not implement this consistently and this may block Linn DS discovery).
- "IGMP Snooping" is turned OFF
- On BTHomeHubs turn "Extended UPnP security" - OFF
- On DLINK, within "Advanced", Multicast Streams - ENABLE
- "Privacy Separator" is turned OFF
- "WMM" is turned OFF
- "Spanning Tree" is turned OFF
- "Flow Control" is turned OFF
- Block multicast / broadcast MAC address is turned OFF
- Speak to a networking specialist who understands the necessary equipment and setup to ensure proper handling of multicast traffic and enable multicast Songcasting
IGMP/IGMP Snooping
If your devices support this service, then make sure this is DISABLED. (This should only be enabled and setup by a “suitably qualified network expert”)
