Using HTTP Tunneling

HTTP tunneling is often used as a means for communicating from network locations with restricted connectivity, for example behind firewalls or proxy servers. To enable HTTP tunneling on the VOD-W you must specify the port that will be used for tunneling and the maximum number of tunneled streams allowed. HTTP tunneling must be configured on both the VOD-W Server and on the Portal Server.

TTo configure for HTTP tunneling on the VOD-W Server

1.In the Configuration Utility, go to the QVOD tab and check Support HTTP Tunneling

using port.

2.Configure the tunneling port on the VOD-W. Default = 8000. In typical application, port 80 is used for HTTP tunneling. By default, the Portal Server and the VOD-W communicate over port 80. Therefore if you select port 80 as the tunneling port you must also reconfigure the web service communications port (see Changing the Web Service Communication Port on page 20).

3.Click on the VbPortal tab and configure the maximum number of tunneled streams. VBrick recommends a maximum of 50 streams for all servers.

TTo configure for HTTP tunneling on the Portal Server

1.Open the Portal Server Admin console, go to Global Settings > Servers > Add/Modify VoD/FTP Servers, and select the VOD-W server you wish to configure.

2.Configure the same HTTP Tunneling Port (see screenshot below) used on the VOD-W. Default = 8000. This port must match the port configured in Step 2 above.

3.Check Supports HTTP Tunneling? (see following screenshot).
