MediaFrame server instructions: HAAR platform

This topic is divided into two sections:

“Cabling the HAAR system servers” on page 22

“Configuring the HAAR system network” on page 23

Cabling the HAAR system servers

For the MediaFrame server you have the option of the high availability HAAR
platform. This platform is made up of two interconnected servers.

NOTE: It is no longer recommended to install Windows Media Player on the HAAR
platform because of compatibility problems, so you can not run the Aurora Browse
application locally on the HAAR platform.
