2. Select the mode of operation for MGP: Device Configuration > Advanced
Setup > Device > MGP Support > MGP Settings.
3. Set up the MSM multicast address:
a In Unit Level mode, the MSM multicast address is configured at Device
Configuration > Advanced Setup > Device > MGP Support > MGP
Settings.
b In Module Level mode, there is the potential of a media bundle per
Transport Stream and the MSM multicast address is configured at Service
Configuration > Host Outputs > Transport Stream (output) > MGP
Settings. MGP protection also needs to be switched on for each
Transport Stream (Configuration > Host Outputs > Transport Stream
(output) > MGP protection). Please note that toggling between MGP
modes will disable MGP protection for each Transport Stream.
4. Configure the MGP spares:
a In Unit Level mode, configure the spares through Device Configuration >
Advanced Setup > Device > MGP Support > MGP Spares, entering the
IP address of each spare. Up to four spares can be configured.
3.7.22.3 Recommendations
With a Same-Network configuration, it is recommended that Transparent source IP
redundancy is used.
With a Different-Network configuration, only Non-Transparent source IP
redundancy is available. Care must be taken to set the source addresses for spare
units, providing the addresses of both output interfaces, or MGP will not work
correctly.
Note: Source IP redundancy can only be set to Non-Transparent when there are
no output Transport Streams configured.
