This chapter outlines the differences between unmanaged and managed Dante networks. Unmanaged networks are simple, flexible, and ideal for small installations, with routing and monitoring handled by Dante Controller. Managed networks, using Dante Domain Manager or Dante Director, introduce centralized control, enhanced security, real-time monitoring, logical device grouping, and support for advanced features like AES67, ST 2110, and high availability failover. This chapter prepares learners to understand when and why to transition to a managed Dante infrastructure.
