In this video from BVE 2017 at London Excel, Pro Tools Expert Technical Editor James Ivey talks to Paul from Emerging about a new free software too for the Audio over IP world - ANEMan. ANEMan by Merging Technologies is designed to manage all of your AOIP devices on a A-67 network no matter that protocol they use.
Merging Technologies continues to show leadership in audio networking with its highly successful Horus and Hapi interfaces, ANEMAN network management software and OEM AES67 solutions with ZMan.

Frequently Asked Questions about ANEMAN Audio Network Manager. If you still have questions, just ask
The ANEMAN project was started in 2014 by Merging Technologies and Digigram to design an audio networking connection monitoring and management system based on the same values as Ravenna: simple, open and free. But the project eventually ended up to be target to an ecosystem much larger than RAVENNA: AES67. By allowing every manufacturer to write its own plug-in for ANEMAN, we do not mandate any specific protocol, and we allow devices already on the market to be easily managed by ANEMAN. This is why existing Merging customers using HORUS and HAPI for the last 4 years can benefit from ANEMAN at no cost.
NMOS is a discovery, control and management protocol of networked media devices. NMOS is basically a northbound API allowing manufacturers to write their own system operation and management software. ANEMAN has a pragmatic approach of being compatible with devices already in the market, therefore even if ANEMAN will use NMOS in the future, it will offer a much wider compatibility and workflow (system operation and management) driven experience.
ANEMAN does not require a specific control protocol, it uses plug-ins based on an open interface. Therefore, every manufacturer can be compatible with ANEMAN using their own (already implemented) protocol.
ANEMAN offers the possibility for users to download available plug-ins based on their level of stability.

Not as much as we want it to.
Starting version 1.0.1, ANEMAN can discover Dante/AES67 streams in ANEMAN and connect them to compatible devices, but you will not be able to control Dante devices or connect AES67 streams to Dante. If you are used to connecting AES67 streams to Dante devices, you can see ANEMAN as a reverse Dante Controller.
Following features are scheduled to be added to ANEMAN:
