Chapter 4 Configuring Devices
Configuring the Service Engine
If you disable device group overlap after you have assigned devices to multiple device groups, existing
overlaps are maintained. Any newly added groups will not allow assignment of devices that are already
assigned to another group, and new devices cannot be added to any groups with overlapping devices.
Tip To force the complete configuration set of a device group to all devices in that group, click the Force
Group Settings icon in the task bar.
Configuring the Service Engine
This section walks you through the different configuration pages available for a Service Engine. The
main configuration groups are described as follows:
• Service Control—Settings for access control by way of client request filtering, URL signing, and
third-party QoS and conditional access policies; additionally, transaction logs are configured to
monitor traffic
• Application Control—Settings for bandwidth management of delivery services and protocol engines
(Web, Windows Media, Movie Streamer, Flash Media Streaming, and RTSP advanced settings)
• General Settings—Settings for access control of the device, maintenance, network connectivity, and
monitoring
The first two pages, Device Activation and Assignment, cover activating an SE in the Internet Streaming
CDSM and assigning it to a location, and assigning device groups to the SE.
Note All SE settings in this section, except those listed below, can also be configured for a device group by
choosing Devices > Device Groups. The following pages are not available for device group
configuration:
• Devices > Application Control > Windows Media Streaming > Bypass List. See the “Configuring
Windows Media Streaming—Bypass List” section on page 4-39 for more information.
• Devices > General Settings > Network > Network Interfaces. See the “Viewing Network
Interfaces” section on page 4-61 for more information.
• Devices > General Settings > Network > External IP. See the “Configuring External IP
Addresses” section on page 4-61 for more information.
Activating a Service Engine
Activating a device (Service Engine, Service Router, or CDSM) can be done through the Device home
page initially, or through the Device Activation page.
To activate a device from the Device Activation page, do the following:
Step 1 Choose Devices > Devices. The Devices Table page is displayed (Figure 4-5).
