Media Flow Controller Configuration Tasks (Web Interface)
Setting the System Hostname (EZconfig)
To set the system hostname using the EZconfig tab System Hostname area:
1.
Enter information in the text boxes:
•
Host Name (FQDN)—Enter a FQDN hostname for the system.
•
DNS IP—Enter an IP address for your domain name system (DNS) server.
2.
Click Apply.
3.
Click Save at the top of the page to make changes persistent. See
Figure 8
for graphic.
Setting Network Parameters (EZconfig)
To set global network connection options using the EZconfig tab Network Parameters area:
1.
Enter information in the text boxes:
•
Max-Bandwidth per Session(kbps)—Limit the allowed bandwidth for any one
session. The actual session bandwidth is between the configured Assured Flow Rate
and this value. Even if there is available bandwidth in the link, Media Flow Controller
does not allocate more than this value for a session. When there is a full download,
Media Flow Controller tries to allocate this value to the session. Default is 0
(unbounded) with the Media Flow Controller license, 200 kbps without it.
Important!
You must have the Media Flow Controller license installed to change the default.
•
Network Max Connections—Limit the allowed number of concurrent sessions in
Media Flow Controller. Default is 5000; maximum allowed is 40,000.
Important!
You
must have the Media Flow Controller license installed to change the default (10
without the license).
•
Assured Flow Rate (kbps)—Set the assured flow rate (AFR) for any connection.
AFR is the minimum rate at which a connection is allowed to exist in the system.
Connections usually get a bandwidth between this and the Max-Bandwidth per
Session setting. Default is 0 (zero), means means AFR is disabled so Media Flow
Controller delivers at a best-effort but does not assure a particular bit rate per video.

•
Virtual Player Name—Enter a name for the new virtual player.

•

flow, connection max-bandwidth, fast-start, full-download, hash verification,
and seek.
