VBrick Systems V4.4.3 manual Add VOD Server, Adding VOD-W, VOD-D, and NXG Servers

Global Settings

Add VOD Server

Use this window to add Video-On-Demand Server(s) to the ETV Portal Server. If the network supports Windows 98 users, you must use the IP address of the VOD server—not the host name. After selecting a Server Type VBrick recommends you keep the default settings for FTP Password, Publishing Local Path, Publishing Directory, etc. unless there is a compelling reason to change them. Nor is it necessary to create a Streaming Alias. Leave this parameter blank unless you are using HTTP Tunneling.

Adding VOD-W, VOD-D, and NXG Servers

Figure 4. Add VOD-W Server

IP or Domain	This is the primary IP address or Host Name of the VOD server
	for LAN users (see also Secondary Server Address below). The
	Server Name or IP address entered into the ETV Portal Server
	must be accessible by the ETV Portal Server. (If the network
	supports Windows 98 users, you must use the IP address.)
Server Description	This allows the administrator to define a descriptor such as
	location.
FTP User Name	This is the FTP user name that the Portal Server uses when
	publishing content to the server. The default user name for NXG,
	VOD-D, VOD-WM, and FTP servers is vbrickuser. The default
	user name for VOD-W servers is anonymous. The FTP User Name
	refers to a user account that already exists on the server. If the FTP
	User Name is changed on any VOD server, it must be changed here
	as well. Use any combination of alphanumeric and special
	characters.
