(unrestricted) external access for the PC running ViaVideo, while the
other devices in your internal network are protected by the firewall.
Note This solution does not provide protection for the PC running
ViaVideo in the DMZ. For more information about DMZs,
see "What's a DMZ?" on page 19.
To configure your ViaVideo to operate through a Virtual Private
Network (VPN) you first need to configure your VPN (in Windows'
Settings>Control Panel>Network>Configuration). Select the VPN
connection as your network connection before launching the
ViaVideo application.
Note Whenever you select, or de-select the Using a VPN option,
you must re-start ViaVideo for your configuration change to
take effect.
When you start ViaVideo, it detects the presence of multiple IP
addresses assigned to your machine, and asks you which one you
want to choose.
