We need a way to set the IP address to a fixed value. Especially with CITP on the scene. It was an inconvenience to not be able to get Art-net to work because the axon defaults to a non-artnet compatible IP address. Now with the media picker relying on console communication over the fixture net we need this basic functionality that has been missing for far too long.
Yes, I know. That doesn't excuse the lack of this setting on the Axon. So now I have to readdress 20+ other pieces of gear to work around the lack of a basic setting on the Axon. A basic setting that I know the operating system has, and provides easy access to. Also, there are times when I have to work in venues where I have to use houselight control via artnet. I am NOT going to reconfigure a venues nodes. I also cannot put a router on their network.
