Viewing Live Presentations

Although presentation viewers can launch a presentation directly from the Portal Server client page, the preferred method is to use the auto-generated "invitee" e-mail that all invited viewers will receive. The e-mail invitation will direct viewers to a load-balanced distribution server if present. Invited viewers will receive an e-mail similar to the following with different links for internal and external viewers. Internal viewers are those in your local network; they will view the presentation via multicast. External viewers are those on the public Internet; they will view the presentation via unicast from a VBrick distribution server (if present). Users who receive the e-mail can double-click on the calendar attachment in the invitation to launch Microsoft Outlook and automatically schedule a reminder.

TTo view a live presentation:

1.Open the e-mail invitation and click on the appropriate internal or external link. Alternately, you can launch the presentation from the Portal Server by searching for Live

Presentations on the Live Media page.
