FireBall Client Server Products
Servers
A FireBall Server is a Fireball media management system that is capable of “serving” media to
other FireBalls over a network. Currently there are three FireBall products which can serve
media to other FireBalls.
FireBall (40GB with HPNA networking)
FireBall E-40
FireBall E-120
Clients
A FireBall Client is a FireBall that can play media from a FireBall Server over a network.
Currently there are three different FireBall products that can play media from FireBall servers:
FireBall (40GB with HPNA networking)
FireBall MP-100
FireBall DVDM-100
Client Server Combinations
The original FireBall is a client and a server at the same time. It uses a peer-to-peer client and
server networking scheme that allows 2 or more FireBalls to automatically synchronize their
MP3 music libraries so that the contents of both the client and server appear in the Music
Guides of each FireBall. You can create a rather large network providing each room access to
the combined FireBall music library.
The FireBall-E servers are only servers and can not act as clients to other FireBall servers.
The newer FireBall clients (the MP and DVDM) use a standard client-server networking
scheme. The following table indicates which servers are compatible with which clients.
