Optimizing the Network
Remote processing is largely dependent on the configuration of the network
that links the client and remote processing station. Special care must be taken
to obtain the maximum available bandwidth.
Authentication and
Security
Since remote processing is based on shared folders within a Windows
network, take special care when creating user accounts for the people who will
be using the remote processing stations.
Administrator Privileges
Remote processing involves shared folders on both the remote processing
station and the client workstation. Users who plan to use remote processing
must log on to the remote processing station and the client workstation using
an account with local administrator privileges. These users should be either in
the Administrators or Power Users groups.
Mapped Drives
On the remote processing station, the video and audio storages correspond to
the mapped drives on the client workstation. Since mapped drives are unique
to each user, each account must contain the same mapped drives. A better
approach is to let users log on the remote processing station using a single
“RP” account with properly mapped drives and permissions. We recommend
giving Power User privileges to this account, since this level allows folder
sharing, but without full Administrator privileges.
