Installing Cards in the Interplay Transfer Server
156
The main components are an Avid Interplay Engine and two Interplay Transfers. All these
services are TCP/IP based.
The Avid Interplay Engine leverages the standard HTTP service on port 80.
The Interplay Transfers use port numbers that are defined in the services file in
\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC\. As installed, these port numbers are as follows:
- 6532 - the Interplay Transfer Engine listens on this port for requests from other TM
servers (for example, initiating a workgroup transfer).
- 6535 - This is the default port used by the Interplay Transfer Engine for connecting to
playback servers (for example, AirSpeed Multi Stream).
- 6539 - The Interplay Transfer Engine listens on this port for incoming requests from the
Transfer Client.
Interplay Transfer uses ports 6432 and 6535 to communicate with the sending or receiving
device. After the Transfer Engine establishes the connection, the OS on the external device
assigns a port and notifies the Transfer Engine of the new port number. Then the external device
starts listening on that port. Transfer Engine uses the new port number for sending or receiving
data.
Installing Cards in the Interplay Transfer Server
For information about configuring the AS3000, see Migrating Interplay Applications to AS3000
Servers.
The cards included with the Interplay Transfer server depend on the Avid shared storage
environment where the Interplay Transfer server is being installed.
In an Avid ISIS environment, the Interplay Transfer server might ship with an Intel
®
PRO/1000
Server Adapter gigabit card, depending on your system’s configuration. This card must be
installed in slot 3 (top slot). Follow the directions supplied with the card. For information on
configuring the Intel PRO/1000 card, see “Configuring the Intel PRO/1000 Adapter Card” on
page 156.
Configuring the Intel PRO/1000 Adapter Card
For information about configuring the AS3000, see Migrating Interplay Applications to AS3000
Servers.
The Intel PRO/Adapter card might require the installation of the Intel Pro/1000 driver. After you
install the driver, you need to configure the card to work correctly with the Interplay Transfer
server. This section provides procedures for installing the driver and configuring the card for
Jumbo Frames.
