Page 18: Determining The Public Ip Addresses Of Your Studio Endpoint
(ISP). If the Studio Gateway Router has a static IP address, you can use it as the destina- tion address in the Mobile SureStreamer. If the IP address is assigned dynamically, then we recommend that you set up hostnames for your studio codec using a Dynamic DNS service. -
Page 19: Apply The New Profile To The Mobile Surestreamer
Apply the new profile to the unit 4.4.1. Manage the Port Forwarding on your Gateway Router The streams from your Mobile SureStreamer reach your Codec in the studio through the Internet Gateway, which is your (xDSL, cable, etc.) router. If you have connected your Codec to your network in the next step, you can configure port forwarding in the Gateway Router. -
Page 20: Connect The Codec To Your Network
Internet, you can only connect it to the Codec once. In this case, you must enter the same destination address in the Mobile SureStreamer for all four WAN streams. You can use the second, unoccupied ETH interface to manage the Codec. -
