CONTENT GROUPS
A
content group is a group if devices that synchronize the same audio content using
the Store and Forward utility
. It is necessary to create a different user for each content
group. Thus, a device assigned to a content group can access only to the content assigned
to that group, and not to other content. This procedure states for security. Each content
group will manage its private key to access assigned content in the server that hosts all
the music, advertisements, voice messages, etc.
Each content group, or user, can have associated multiple connections at the same time.
The maximum number of simultaneous connections will depend on the power of the
hardware (server).
So, we will be creating as many content groups, or users on Linux, as contents (music
folder e.g.) we want to manage.
Figura 86: content groups
For a simple configuration, it is possible to create a single user, so, every device can
access to its content using the same user and key. It is skipped security level in this
configuration
. A skilled user could configure the Store and Forward using the embedded
web server in the player (changing the folder assigned to it), in order to access to any
content in the SSH server, since the key is known.
