How the OVS System Communicates

2-24

Introducing Oracle Video Server                              

How the OVS Delivers Video

Figure 2–11

 illustrates steps the OVS system follows to deliver video. This example 

uses a symmetric network. Steps 7 through 12 make up a video round trip, or a 
request from an application met by video delivery from the OVS.
