DANTE LEVEL 2 FINAL PAPER 2026 EXAM
SCRIPT WITH COMPLETE ANSWERS
● Are dante flows unicast or multicast by default? Answer: Unicast
● Does dante domain manager subscribe to other networks when the
transmitter is multicast? Answer: Yes. Dante domain manager can take
multicast from a transmitter and send it as unicast across a router to
another subnet.
● A campus network has different subnets for each of the twenty
buildings. A project calls for a system design where Dante devices
would be present in every building. The VLANs are connected by
standard inter-VLAN routing. Dante Domain Manager is present in the
design.
Can we establish a single dante domain for all the background music and
paging equipment across the entire campus, throughout all subnets?
Answer: Yes. We will need to make sure we have enough flows to cover
the unicast feeds, but otherwise this is fine.
● When we share sources from one domain to another, how much
control do we have? Answer: we have a choice between sharing
, channels to all domains in a group, or for more customization, we can
choose which channels are available in each domain.
● If all dante devises are enrolled in dante domain manager and a
random person connects to your network and launches dante controller,
will they be able to see anything? Answer: No. Dante controller will not
show any devices on DDM until you have entered your credentials.
● How does dante controller discover a new device when it is first
connected to the network? Answer: dante controller listens for an mDNS

● You have a system design with about 1000 devices spread across a
property. The IT administrator insists you segment the broadcast
domain. You know audio/video signals need to flow between major
systems throughout the property. What steps do you need to do? Answer:
Break the network into VLANs, use unique subnets for each VLAN and
connect them with inter-VLAN routing.
Add Dante Domain Manager to manage and coordinate devices across
the layer 3 network.
● When Troubleshooting a system, what order (in terms of concepts) do
we start at and work off from? Answer: Connectivity---> clocking---
>Subscriptions--->Latency
