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 Inter net 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
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.
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.
