Bug Fixes:

Dante Controller v4.13.0

CS-1182: Dante Controller should check that a device is capable of contacting Director before allowing it to be enrolled

CS-1143: Devices don't show up in the Dante Controller routing matrix when enrolled in Dante Director

CS-1220: Packet errors not cleared on Zync IP Core, AVIO, DVS (or not counted on Via)
CS-1209: The 'Use Shared Dante Interface' option has been reinstated

CS-1300: If logged into Director or Dante Domain Manger, changing the network interface in Dante Updater prevents a different Site/Domain from being selected.
