I have successfully tested Control Send Mute commands, this work fine between laptop and network connection of my X32

A few weeks before that I successfully tested the Yamaha TF1 with Dante card.
Everything worked perfectly.
Now I would like to send the sound from the laptop to various outputs (1-8) of the X32 via SCS and Dante.
I saw and understood that in the settings.
Now do I have a strange question?
The fact is:
The network cable from the laptop is connected to the X32 network card.
2. How do I connect the laptop to the Dante card in the X32 ???
Do I need a network switch now?
Thanks Erwin
