Assign LAN/Internet

Define the range(s) of IP addresses that define the LAN or

Address Range(s)

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, VOD-W,

 

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

 

VOD Server on page 31).

 

Note: Standard VBrick IP Receivers do not support

 

HTTP tunneling and will not play MPEG-4 content if this

 

option is selected.

 

 

Assign Multicast Address

Defines the current multicast IP address range and port

Range

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

Not generally changed. Defines the interval at which the

Interval

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.

 

Use Hide content for VOD Servers experiencing connection

 

problems to prevent end users from seeing unavailable

 

content and to enable rollover to the Default Server

 

Address(es) specified on the Zones page (see Zones on

 

page 76 for more information). Default = checked. If this

 

option is unchecked, there will be no rollover to default

 

servers in the event of a server failure.
