Sharing Media Content over the Internet

There are two methods for sharing media content on your ix4-300d with anyone on the internet. You can enable internet access on the Media Server page. Alternatively, you can enable internet access by configuring your LenovoEMC Personal Cloud.

Enabling Internet Access from the Media Server Page

You can only enable internet access from the Media Server page if you have already created and configured a Personal Cloud. If a Personal Cloud is not set up, you do not see the Enable internet access option.

1.On the Media Server page, click Settings.

2.In the dialog box, check Enable internet access.

3.Click Apply to save your changes.

4.In the confirmation dialog box, check Check this box to continue.

5.Click OK to save your selection or click Cancel.

To access media content, internet users enter a non-secure IP address in their browser along with the port number 50599 used to access the media server, for example, http://72.xx.xxx.104:50599, where "x" is the IP value for your network. When a user enters this IP address, the Twonky Server page on the ix4-300d displays. Refer to the Support section of the Twonky Server page for information on using the server. LenovoEMC Link users can access media content directly from the ix4-300d. Refer to your LenovoEMC Link documentation for details.

For additional information on enabling internet access, refer to Media Services Capabilities and Limitations.
