Configure the IIS Media Server
You need to configure an IIS media server and your RealPresence Capture Server to work with the server
as well.
When you configure an IIS media server, you can create two virtual directories, which are used for live
streaming and VoDs.
To configure the IIS media server:
1 Launch the IIS manager, then create a virtual directory named as live, with the default port as 80.
Specify the physical path for the virtual directory, for example, C:\inetpub\wwwroot\live.
2 Set the authentication methods.
a Select live.
b Double click Authentication.
c To play live streams on an iPad, make sure Anonymous Authentication is selected. To control
an IIS publishing point from your RealPresence Capture Server make sure that Windows
Authentication is selected.
3 Navigate to C:\inetpub\wwwroot\, create two xml files: clientaccesspolicy.xml and
crossdomain.xml.
Here is the example text for the clientaccesspolicy.xml and crossdomain.xml files.
If you have installed the Polycom RealPresence Media Manager and IIS on the
same server, you need to put the correct crossdomain.xml and
clientaccesspolicy.xml files to the root directory of the RealPresence Media
Manager portal.
For configuration steps, refer to Capture Server and Media Manager Integration
Guide.
