Step 2 Enter the Streamer ISA settings as appropriate. See Table 4-19 for descriptions of the fields.
Table 4-19 Streamer ISA Fields
Field Description
Streamer ISA OpenStream Settings
Stream
Master IP
Master IP address of the Stream Service, which is the same for all Streamers in an array, and is used in the
creation of the Interoperable Object References (IORs) for stream objects.
The Streamer designated as the master Stream Service (determined by a negotiating algorithm) sends multicast
heartbeat messages every second to the other Streamers in the array. If the heartbeat message has not been
received for more than five seconds, another Streamer in the array takes over as master Stream Service.
To edit the Stream Master IP, see the “Configuring the Control and Setup IPs” section on page 4-72.
Stream
Master Port
Port used by the master Stream Service for controlling streams. The Stream Service Master Port is the same
for all Streamers in an array. The default is 3300.
Headend ID
1
This value is passed to the OpenStream system as part of the resource negotiation. The default is 0.0.0.0.
Config File
Name
1
Read-only field. Name of the file that stores the ISA configuration settings.
Stream
Source
Config
This field determines the source IP address that is included in the session setup header. This field has the
following possible values:
• Control IP—The IP address of the Control server (see the “Configuring the Control and Setup IPs” section
on page 4-72).
• Default Stream Source IP—The default source IP address from the Server Setup page (see the
“Configuring the Servers” section on page 4-112).
• Stream Interface IP—The IP address of the interface that was used to stream the content (see the
“Configuring the Servers” section on page 4-112).
• None—Do not include the source IP address in the session setup header.
Web Service
Port
1
Port number used by web service processes listening on this server. The default is 8080.
Streaming
Mode
Mode expected by the next device in the network. The streaming mode determines the required configuration
for the headend setup (see the “Configuring the Headend Setup” section on page 4-9 and the “Configuring
QAM Gateways” section on page 4-4 for more information).
MSA
Support
Enabling Managed Services Architecture (MSA) routes successful events to the ISA event channels and error
events to either the Event Posting Agent (EPA) or the Event Log Agent (ELA).
Events consist of three basic groups: subsystem-component state, faults, and measurement points. State and
faults allow a monitoring tool to verify the current health of the system, while measurement points allow a
monitoring tool to view the transactional state of the system and determine how it is performing.
