You can purchase Tivella Administration Server (TAS) separately through Tivella (www.tivella.com or a Tivella dealer/reseller). A TAS server should be used to configure and manage multiple Network Displays remotely. TAS provides centralized scheduling of video content presentation on multiple Network Displays, as well as management and seamless operation of a Cisco® ACNS Content Distribution Networking infrastructure if one is installed. This configuration greatly reduces maintenance overhead, when TAS and the Network Display are connected to the network (LAN/WAN) with the TAS acting as a manager for multiple Network

Displays.
