ETV Portal Server Admin Guide 27
Servers
Use the Servers page to add or modify VOD or FTP servers, or to add or modify VOD
Content Folders. Note that you can cluster multiple servers to increase throughput: the ETV
Portal Server will automatically load balance all servers defined on the
Servers page; no
additional configuration is necessary. Note that content added by users in the Internet zone
will only be ingested to VOD servers in the Internet zone for which they have permissions.
Content added by users in the LAN zone will be ingested to all VOD servers to which they
have permissions. See ETV Video-on-Demand Servers
on page 6 for more about ETV
servers.
Using Secure FTP
In v4.2 or higher, VBrick's FTP client supports secure FTP connections from the end user
(client), Portal Server and NVR to the VOD servers. This is accomplished using FTP over
SSL (FTPS protocol). Having a client that supports FTPS however, is not enough to have
Live Stream Click on any live stream shown in the list to populate this field.
