Managing the Operating System
Windows Server 2012 R2 (Standard 64-bit) is pre-installed on the Lightspeed Live server
on an SSD drive. See
for OS specifications. Windows Server 2016 is also
supported for Live Stream 3.0, and is available by request.
Microsoft Activation Key
A sticker on the top surface of the Lightspeed Live server lists license numbers. The
number listed as the Physical Key is the OEM license number for the Microsoft Windows
operating system. If you remove and reinstall the OS, you will need to use this key to
activate Windows again. The number typically contains five groups of five digits, as in
this example: YFG8H-TDD97-6BR4G-F88PF-XXXXX.
Microsoft Updates
The Lightspeed Live server ships with the Windows operating system set to check for
updates, but it does not automatically download or install them. Downloading and
installation of critical operating system updates is the responsibility of each customer
(see your system administrator).
Windows User ID and Password
After the Lightspeed Live server boots up, you can log into it with the following
Windows user account.
:
Windows Firewall
The Lightspeed Live Capture web application uses port 8083 and/or 8084, and Live
Stream uses port 8089. If you use Windows Firewall, be sure those ports are open on the
Lightspeed Live server and across your network.
To open the Windows firewall on the Lightspeed Live server or other Windows
machines, go to Start > Control Panel > Windows Firewall > Allow a program or feature
through Windows Firewall > Allow another program.
Scroll through the list of programs, and click Add for each of these: Lightspeed Live
Capture, Lightspeed Live Stream, Vantage Management Console, and Vantage
Workflow Portal.
Click OK to close the programs list. The added programs appear in the firewall list, and
you can check which networks they can use. Then close the Control Panel.
