Video Networking

With Fibre Channel, you can copy and move media between a network of
Profile systems at faster than real time. You must configure your network,
whether your Profile unit came from the factory with a Fibre Channel card
installed or whether you have installed Fibre Channel as an F-kit (field
installation kit).

Configuring your system for the Fibre Channel option requires that you first
configure your Ethernet LAN. See PDR200 Installation Manual or Profile
Family Local Area Network Installation Manual
for details on installing and
configuring the LAN.

Configuring the system involves completion of the tasks listed below.

• Configuring the Fibre Channel Board Hardware Address.

• Configuring the Fibre Channel Board for TCP/IP.

NOTE: All Fibre Channel systems should have Profile system
software version 2.2 installed.
