G&D and NETGEAR AV Launch KVM-over-IP Plugin for Automated Network Configuration

Guntermann and Drunck (G&D) and NETGEAR AV have announced a plugin that automates network configuration for G&D KVM-over-IP deployments on NETGEAR AV Line infrastructure. The G&D KVM-over-IP Plugin applies a dedicated profile directly to ports or sections of NETGEAR AV Line switches, automatically activating VLAN configuration, IGMP Snooping Querier, QoS, and other required settings in a single step.

The plugin is targeted at broadcast, Pro AV, and mission-critical control room environments where multiple device categories, switch types, and bandwidth classes must operate on shared IP infrastructure.

The partnership with G&D was a logical step for us, as we share a common understanding of the requirements of modern, mission-critical IP workflows. By combining G&D's proven KVM expertise with NETGEAR AV's networking technology, we are creating powerful, scalable, and easy-to-deploy solutions for control rooms, broadcast environments, and other professional applications. Together, we are helping our customers make the transition to KVM-over-IP efficiently, reliably, and with a future-proof approach, says Laurent Masia, Senior Director of Product Line Management, NETGEAR AV.
