Installing SiteConfig
Connect a PC with the appropriate system requirements to the LAN on which all the
devices to be managed are connected. Take into consideration the requirement that
there be no routed paths to the devices.
1. Install the SiteConfig application on the PC. The SiteConfig application can be
downloaded from the Grass Valley website or from the SiteConfig CD.
2. Open the Windows operating system Services control panel on your Control Point
PC and look for an entry called " ProductFrame Discovery Agent".
The Discovery Agent is also known as the Network Configuration Connect Kit.
The Discovery Agent must be installed on the control point PC so that the control
point PC can be discovered by SiteConfig and added to the system description
as a managed device. This is necessary to ensure name resolution in SiteConfig's
hosts file.
3. Proceed as follows:
•
If the Discovery Agent is not installed, navigate to the SiteConfig install
location's Discovery Agent Setup subdirectory and double-click the
DiscoveryAgentServiceSetup.msi
file. This launches the setup program and
installs the Discovery Agent. Follow the setup wizard to complete installation.
A restart is required after installation. Then continue with the next step in this
procedure.
•
If the Discovery Agent is already installed, continue with the next step in this
procedure.
4. If not already configured, configure the control point PC with a valid Ethernet IP
address for the LAN using Windows Network Connections.
5. If you are not going to be using SiteConfig to manage system hosts files, put the
system hosts file on the control point PC.
