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.
Networking Protocol Avid|DS RP uses the TCP/IP networking protocol for licensing. Other protocols
don't need to be installed, unless they're required for other network activities.
