SiteConfig Express/Core server network set up
All systems require this process.
If you received your system already set up from Grass Valley, your Express or Core servers are
already included in the SiteConfig system description and set up on the network, so you can skip
these tasks. Otherwise, work through the topics in this section.
Adding an Express/Core server to the SiteConfig system description

2. Configure settings for the device you are adding as follows:

• If a Core server on the GV STRATUS system, select STRATUS Core Server .
• Name – This is the device name, as displayed in the SiteConfig device tree view and device
list view. This name can be different than the host name (network name). You can accept the
