Each Push can be enabled or disabled without affecting multicast, RTSP, HTTP streaming, or
other active pushes. However, changing the "include" settings will cause a brief interruption
of video and audio for all three encoders. All streams being sent from the unit (including
multicast and push) are interrupted. Any active HTTP or RSTP clients will be dropped and
any archive file in progress will be closed.

Configuration: Reflector

As shown in Table 12, the WM appliance supports one independent source for a Windows
Media stream and four independent and concurrent destinations. The possible sources are the
live encoder or the incoming reflected stream. For any source, the appliance supports the
same four options for concurrent destinations—including multiple push. Note that only one
source can be active at a time for a given set of destinations and this same source stream goes

Server

DNS server name or IP address of push destination. Include the
port number if the number is not port 80, for example:

ip:port

or

name:port

. A VBrick Reflector uses port 7070 by default. For

example:

172.22.2.112:7070

Publishing/Mount Point Sets the name of the publishing point on the WM appliance to

accept the push. It can be a publishing point that already exists
on the server or it can be a new publishing point that is a
duplicate of an existing publishing point.
Must match the Reflector publishing point. See Configuration:
Reflector on page 57.

Copy From
Publishing Point

This object sets the name of an existing publishing point on the
Windows Media Server that will be duplicated to create a
publishing point to accept the push. This parameter is not
meaningful if the reflector is a WM appliance.

Auto Remove

When the push publishing point is a new copy of an existing
publishing point, this instructs the server to delete the copy after
the push is complete. The publishing point will be created when
the push is enabled on the WM Appliance and the publishing
point will be deleted when the push is disabled on the WM
Appliance. Publishing points can only be created and deleted on a
Windows Media Server with certain security settings. See the
Microsoft Windows Media Services documentation or talk to
your server administrator for more information. This parameter
is not meaningful if the reflector is a WM appliance.

User Name

Local user name or domain/active directory user name. Must
match the Reflector user name if the Reflector has authentication
enabled. See Configuration: Reflector on page 57.

Password

Password associated with the user name. Must match the
Reflector password if the Reflector has authentication enabled.
See Configuration: Reflector on page 57.

Domain Name

Domain name of the server or leave blank if server is not on a
domain. If the server is on a domain but a local name will be used
for authentication, enter the server name. Not meaningful if the
reflector is a VBrick appliance.
