10G Link between M4300 and MS510TXPP

Hi,

I am using a M4300 as a main switch on which all my AV devices are plugged on a concert hall : computers, video projectors...

I also use it extensively to transport all my NDI streams on the venues.

I have 2 MS510TXPP on stage and FOH connected to the 10G copper ports on the M4300 as uplinks.

I am not a network expert. Sorry for the basic questions, still learning :)

i would have prefered the brand new M4250 but well... i don't have one...

So i do my best setting up the M4300 for AV. I have followed the Newtek recommandations for NDI.

One thing that comes to my mind, which is not specifically related to AV, is should i set my 10G ports as trunk on all my switches even if i use only one VLAN ? For the record, i use the default VLAN 1 which seems to be a specific VLAN on netgear switches. Should i consider using another dedicated one ? like VLAN 20 or something ?

Also i am trying to understand how to disable QoS...

Thanks a lot
