If I do not have access to the venue network, then my networking needs are just my 2 devices. This is the case I am trying to provide for, without having to edit a config file. the Opsis PC is often headless, so editing is done via ssh from the voctomix pc, which is hard if the 2 don't have networking setup.
put another NIC in it and dedicat that NIC to your management access... assign it an IP in a weird RFC1918 block and you should be ok... this way you can always access it even if the other general purpose NIC is not connected to a network... never connect this dedicated NIC to any other network outside of your complete control... be sure to carry a crossover cable with you so you can connect that NIC with the one in your other device... in fact, you might want to use a dedicated management NIC in both devices so they can be set up with specific static IPs and always be accessible to each other...
