Chapter 3 Configuring the system
Configure Profile MDIs
This page configures the Managed Device Interfaces (MDI) for the Profile Media
Servers. As you add Profile MDIs make sure that you associate Profile MDIs and
Profile host names correctly.
Multiple Profile MDIs run on a single machine (the MDI server), but they each need
their own process port number. For this purpose the “Port” field automatically
increments. To use the automatically incremented port numbers, make sure you add
Profile MDIs in the correct sequence. You can also manually enter port numbers. The
MDIs and their port numbers must match settings as in
“Configure Media Frame
ASK: Register components” on page 54 .
For configuring the basic MediaFrame stage, do not yet configure transfer targets.
