Install SiteConfig on control point PC

NOTE: There might be a newer version of this document available. Check your product's release
notes and the Grass Valley website at www.grassvalley.com/docs for references to an updated
version that contains additional important information.

Work through the following topics to install the SiteConfig application on the control point PC.

About installing SiteConfig

SiteConfig uses a protocol that involves sending Ethernet broadcast messages to discover and
configure devices. To enable this protocol to work correctly, there must be unrestricted network
access between the PC that hosts SiteConfig and the devices to be discovered.

This is achieved if control network interfaces are all connected to the same switch or to multiple
switches interconnected with ISLs/trunks. If your site requires that other switches and/or routers be
in the network path, you must make sure that no restrictions are in place that block SiteConfig
protocols.

Also, do not install SiteConfig on a PC on which a drive from a managed device is mapped as an
administrative share (C$). For example, if you have a PC set up to run anti-virus software and for
this purpose you have network drives set up on the PC mapped to C$ shares on devices, then do not
use that PC to host SiteConfig and manage those devices.

For a given system, there should be just one instance of SiteConfig managing the system.
