I'm not entirely sure that's what they're saying: the original post simply says "they [the engineering team] had added a new video system that ran over IP".

I would be somewhat surprised if that "new video system" was the IFE system. It's more likely to be something flight deck related.

I say this with some knowledge of working in that industry and understanding how the two biggest IFE systems manufacturers install their gear.


Not particularly. You'd be surprised how many control systems are split from corporate LAN's via VLAN tags (only).
