Chapter 5 Configuring Services
Configuring Delivery Services
Note If the specified proxy fails, the Content Acquirer, by default, contacts the origin server directly
and tries to fetch the content.
Step 5 Click Add to add the proxy server.
To edit the proxy server settings, choose the proxy server from the Select a Proxy Server list, and click
Edit. The values for the proxy server are displayed in the Proxy Server Specification section. Once you
have finished modifying the settings, click Update.
To delete the proxy server settings, choose the proxy server from the Select a Proxy Server list, and click
Delete.
Step 6 To assign the proxy server to the host or hosts listed on this page, choose a proxy server from the Select
a Proxy Server list, and click Save Assignment. The Content Hosts Table page is displayed.
Identifying Content Using a Manifest File
The Manifest file provides information about the content to be prefetched, or fetched at a later time (as
in hybrid ingest), or provides information about live content streamed through the delivery service.
Note Before configuring the CDSM to receive the Manifest file, you need to create one. See Appendix B,
“Creating Manifest Files” for details on creating a Manifest file. After you create the Manifest file, use
the Manifest Validator utility to verify the syntax. See the “Manifest Validator Utility” section on
page B-14 for more information.
To configure the Manifest file settings, do the following:
Step 1 Choose Services > Service Definition > Delivery Services > Delivery Service Content. The Content
Table page is displayed with Use GUI to specify content acquisition as the method.
Step 2 To change to the Specify external Manifest file method, do the following:
a. Click Change Method.
b. From the drop-down list choose, Specify external manifest file.
c. Click Save.
Disable Basic
Authentication
When checked, NTLM headers cannot be stripped off that would allow fallback
to the basic authentication method.
If you leave this check box unchecked, NTLM authentication headers can be
stripped to allow fallback to the basic authentication method and the username
and password information can be passed to the origin server in clear text with a
basic authentication header.
User Name Name of the user to be authenticated to fetch the content.
Password Password of the user to pass authentication from the proxy.
