Assign LAN/Internet
Address Range(s) Define the range(s) of IP addresses that define the LAN or
the Internet domain. Any IP addresses outside the range are
assumed to be from the domain you did not select. Check one
option and, if necessary, use the text box to enter the range(s)
separated by a comma, a semicolon, or a new line. For details,
see ETV Internet-Based Servers on page 7.
• All Users, Servers, and VBricks are in the LAN Domain
(default).
• All Users, Servers, and VBricks are in the Internet
Domain.
• Specify LAN Address Range(s); assume users/servers/
VBricks outside this range(s) are in the Internet domain.
• Specify Internet Address Range(s); assume users/servers/
VBricks outside this range(s) are in the LAN domain.
• Always use TCP protocol (HTTP Tunneling/RTSP
Interleaving) for MPEG-4 and Windows Media content –
Use only with Internet-compatible (VOD-D and
VOD-WM) servers. If checked, the Portal Server will
always use HTTP tunneling or RTSP interleaving using
the
HTTP Tunneling Port
defined for the server (see
Add/Modify VOD/FTP Servers on page 31).
Assign Multicast Address
Range Defines the current multicast IP address range and port
range. The default multicast IP range is 225.1.1.0–
239.128.255.255. The default port range is 1040–65534.
Assign VOD Polling
Interval Not generally changed. Defines the interval at which the
Portal Server polls the VOD server(s) for new content
(default 120 minutes). This is only used to poll for content
added to the VOD from an interface other than ETV Portal
Server. When adding a server, use Sync Now to sync the
program listings on the client Browse Video Library page
with the content on the new server.
Assign VoD Content
Ingestion Maximum Defines the maximum number of simultaneous video files
that can be ingested to the VOD Video-on-Demand server.
The default is set to 2. Increasing the default may increase
the speed at which files will be transferred to the VOD
server, but may result in playback issues from the Video-on-
Demand server. VBrick recommends keeping the default of 2
for all supported VOD servers.
Assign Default Max.
Concurrent Viewers Defines the default maximum concurrent viewers allowed for
new live or stored (VOD) content. An entry on the
Stream
Restrictions
page or the
Modify VOD Content
page will
override these value for live and stored streams respectively.
Set Expired VOD Content
Treatment Specifies whether expired content will be kept or
automatically deleted at the expiration date.
