Streaming port range start.
Specify the start
port for your streaming port range, e.g. 30000.
The start port must be an even number. The
Content Server will use the streaming start
port + 30 to be used for streaming live calls,
eg. a port range from 30000 to 30030. Ensure
that you select ports that are NOT being used
by the Content Server (see the Appendix for a
list of ports used by the Content Server).

Enter the user name to be used for
authentication with your streaming server.
Password.
Enter the password to be used for
authentication with your streaming server.
Password Confirm.

TTL.
Choose the multicast time to live (TTL)
threshold. The “multicast TTL” tells the network
how far multicast packets should be allowed
to travel across the network. The default
threshold is LAN (TTL=32). The value “Subnet”
(i.e. TTL=1) means that packets do not pass
the first network router. This setting should
mean a multicast stream is viewable on any
network, even those not enabled for multicast,
where the client is on the same subnet as the
Content Server. The efficacy of higher values
WAN (64), Internet (128), Unrestricted (255)
depends on the configuration of the network
