and licenses for the user.

Aurora Browse application.

• “Configure Aurora Browse Licenses” on page 95
• “Managing Aurora Browse User sessions” on page 98
Connect server and NAS to customer LAN
The MediaFrame server and NAS machines must have network access to the external
LAN of the Aurora Browse client PCs. Work with the IT personnel at the customer
site to configure Domain, DNS suffix, or any other settings required by the site’s
LAN.
Also, make sure that permissions are correct for access to the MediaFrame server
website, which serves the Aurora Browse application. The website uses Integrated
Windows Authentication.
Configure Aurora Browse Licenses
You must configure the MediaFrame server, as per your Aurora Browse license, to
allow user access to Aurora Browse application features. Roles and Licensing is
managed centrally from the MediaFrame server. This requires that you log in as
Aurora Browse administrator. A role can be leased if the user has been assigned the
role by an administrator, and a license for the role exists and is available.
