VBricks

All VBricks must be configured in ETV Portal Server before they can be managed and used
for scheduled events. (VBrick configuration is only required if you are using the

Scheduling

feature. Once configured, all VBricks in the system are shown on the following window. In
the ETV Portal Server, SAP (Session Announcement Protocol) announcements are sent to
the Portal Server by network-connected VBrick devices (encoders and/or decoders). The

Select VBrick

panel in the next screen shows VBrick appliances (encoders and decoders) that

have announced their presence on the network but have not been configured for use in ETV
Portal Server. (Note that if you delete a VBrick from the

Currently Configured VBrick List

, it

will not be shown as available until you logout and log back in to the Admin Console.)
