FieldDescription
Server NameIdentifies which server is communicating with the Performance Accelerator. Each Performance Accelerator contains a configuration file; this file must contain the server name that is in MediaManager in order to communicate with the Granicus application and the database
Control PortThe port that allows different kinds of network connections to run to and from Granicus
Load Balancer ScoreDo not change the default setting
Replication UsernameFor clients utilizing 2.0 to enable a web connection to Granicus servers
Replication PasswordFor clients utilizing 2.0 to enable a web connection to Granicus servers
Server Supports On-DemandDo not change the default setting
Server Supports Live BroadcastDo not change the default setting
Firewall Compatibility ModeThis setting tells the application that the server is behind a firewall, which enables the credentials (username and password) to be triggered. If firewall compatibility is set to “No,” the MediaVault assumes that other servers are able to download content from the server. If firewall compatibility is set to “Yes,” then the MediaVault initiates FTP transfers and sends its files to other servers that should distribute the same content
Server Supports MulticastThis setting tells the DataCenter that multicasting is enabled on the server itself. When multicasting is enabled, an NSC file is created that allows multicast streaming. This box tells MediaManager to alert the player to look for the NSC file created on the server
Server Supports Large File UploadsDo not change the default setting
