CONFIGURE STREAMGROOMER BOOT IP PARAMETERS WITH A USB KEY
4.4.1
Procedure
The StreamGroomer boot IP parameters can also be automatically imported through a USB stick containing a boot
configuration file. A boot file contains the login password and the StreamGroomer boot parameters. If the communication
link between the SGM and the StreamGroomer is to be secured, it also contains the RSA public key of the SGM.
During the boot phase, the StreamGroomer is able to read its configuration from a file that has been prepared with the SGM.
With a web browser, connect to the SGM and enter in the StreamView application and go to the STREAMGROOMER section,
and select the StreamGroomer:
1.
Prepare the boot file in StreamView for the selected SG. If the site is supported by a Dual or Tandem configuration, a
boot file has to be generated for each SG.
2.
Download the boot file on the local desktop and save it on an USB key
3.
Plug the USB key on the SG
4.
Reboot the SG
