Do you have any experience with the 3417? I'm considering it for a current project but I'm concerned about scalability. I wonder...if I decide to add a second "channel" to my network, can I add another 3417? Or do I have to scrap the 3417 and migrate back to the "3412/3425 x n" architecture? I haven't given much thought to the potential problems of having more than one control server in an mcast network.
