Aurora Browse Installation and Configuration Guide

Configure Generic FTP MDI

3. Enter the MDI name to log in to the FTP interface on the NLS device. Use the

...

button to browse the list of available MDIs.

4. Port 9128 is required. See

“Ports and services mapping” on page 47

.

5. Enter the IP Address or the name resolving to the FTP server on the FTP server

network where assets will be transferred to, and the FTP username and password.
If using a K2 nearline, configure the Generic FTP MDI to use the K2's nearline
FTP.

6. Make sure the root directory field is blank. Otherwise, you cannot transfer between

the Generic FTP MDI and another Generic FTP MDI, or between a Generic FTP
MDI and Flashnet or Diva archives.

NOTE: If you need to change the root directory to blank after the system has been
configured, you must run the UpdateFTPLocations script. This script is located on
the MediaFrame server under C:|Program Files\Grass
Valley\MediaFrame\Database\UpdateFtpLocations.

7. Check Passive Transfer Mode if you want to transfer assets from one server to

another without having the data go through the MDI. Enable passive transfer on the
FTP server first.

NOTE: Although passive transfer mode is preferred, if the FTP server is an IIS
FTP server, the Generic FTP MDI must use Active transfer mode.

9. When prompted to restart the MDI, click
