Configuring transfer targets
Configuring transfer targets
On many MDI configuration pages there is a section for configuring transfer targets.
When you configure a transfer target, you specify the following:
• The MDI through which the MediaFrame system has access to the files sent or
received.
• The IP address of the FTP interface that handles the transfer of the files.
For the different device-types that can be transfer targets, there are different
relationships between the MDI that accesses the files and the device that hosts the FTP
interface. The following table specifies how to configure transfer targets to maintain
the correct MDI/FTP relationships.
NOTE: In Aurora 6.5, you no longer need to configure transfer targets in the
archives.
When
configuring
this type of
MDI as a
transfer
target…
And that MDI
manages
this type of
device…
Enter this as the
MDI name…
And then enter
FTP IP
address…
(NOTE: Do not
enter the FTP
hostname) And when you add the
transfer target, it appears as
follows, in “Existing
Transfer Targets”, for
example…
