This is the first UDP port address for elementary streams.

8. When prompted, confirm your change and the restart of the K2 Summit systems.

The multicast settings are applied to all K2 Summit system attached to the K2 SAN.

Test proxy media generation

This test is valid for standalone K2 Summit systems. You can check the proxy media that the K2
Summit system generates. This can be helpful in troubleshooting situations where you need to verify
that the proxy is available to other applications, such as the STRATUS application.

Use this procedure for test purposes only. Accessing proxy media as explained in this procedure is
not supported for operational use.

1. Verify that in K2 AppCenter Configuration Manager, a K2 Summit system channel is enabled

for live network streaming and for recording proxy files.

2. Verify that there is video available at the channel's SDI input.
