               Legacy Devices


               Devices with some legacy (pre-v4.0) versions of firmware can be 'associated' with domains using DDM.
               This adds them to the relevant clock domain, and allows them to exchange audio with devices enrolled in
               the same domain, which are also on the same IP subnet (legacy devices do not support audio routing
               between subnets).
               When legacy devices are associated with a domain, they only appear in Dante Controller when you are
               logged into the relevant domain (unless they have been specifically revealed - see Hidden Legacy Devices
               below).


                    Note: Dante Controller must be connected to the same subnet as a legacy device in order for it to
                    appear in the Dante Controller interface.



                    Important: When legacy devices are associated with a domain, they are not protected from
                    unauthorized access via Dante Controller. Also, when associated, they are placed in a dedicated
                    clock domain and thus can no longer exchange audio with unmanaged devices.


                Hidden Legacy Devices


               If a legacy device is moved to an unmanaged Dante network without first being de-associated, it will not
               appear by default in Dante Controller.
               Dante Controller notifies you with a spy icon (next to the network status icons at the bottom left of the UI) if
               you have hidden devices on your network:




















               To view hidden devices in Dante Controller, select View > 'Show Hidden Devices'.
               For more information about legacy devices, see the DDM user guide.


               Domain Credentials


               When a device is enrolled in a Dante domain, information about the relevant DDM server and the domain in
               which it is enrolled is saved to the device. When the device is unenrolled, the domain membership
               information is cleared, and the device returns to the unmanaged (unenrolled) domain.

               If an enrolled device is moved out of the DDM network to another network without first being unenrolled, it
               will not appear in Dante Controller, because its domain credentials indicate that it is still enrolled in a
