scope:

This standard describes a mechanism to transfer DMX512-A [DMX] packets over an IP network using a subset of the ACN protocol suite. It covers data format, data protocol, data addressing, and network management. It also outlines a synchronization method to help ensure that multiple receivers can process this data concurrently when supervised by the same source. Sources transporting either data or synchronization packets must also advertise, via the Universe Discovery mechanism, what universes they are actively transmitting on.
