2.1. Overview
Prerequisites on the Network
The operator service, installed on the XClient-VIA, manages communication between the Remote Panel
and the LSM-VIAViewer. It also communicates with the VIA services on the XT-VIA server.
The LSM-VIA configuration tool can be accessed through a browser by entering the IP address of the
XClient-VIA.
The following prerequisites apply regarding the network.
• The XClient-VIA and the Remote Panel should be on the same VLAN.
• When the EVS video servers are in the same VLAN, no additional configuration is needed.
When the EVS video servers are deployed in a different VLAN (MTPC) than the Remote Panel and the
XClient-VIA, then the following ports must be open to allow the XClient-VIA to communicate with the
server:
◦ TCP 8088 (for XT Operations).
◦ TCP 80 (to access the LSM-VIA configuration tool from a browser).
Routing must be set accordingly (IT).
• The ports TCP 9002 and 9004 must be open to allow LSM-VIA to communicate with VIA Xsquare.
• The ports TCP6668 and 6669 must be open to be able to use the search functions from the LSM-
VIAViewer.
• To make the device more secure, the port 80 forwarding should be disabled.
◦ With LSM-VIA versions prior to 1.2, the port forwarding was enabled by default during the
installation.
◦ On workstations upgraded with LSM-VIA version 1.2, the installation does not disable the port
forwarding.
◦ On workstations where the first LSM-VIA version installed is the 1.2, the port forwarding is
disabled by default.
See section "Disabling or Enabling Port 80 Forwarding" on page 4 for more information on how to
proceed.
Prerequisites on the Controlled EVS Server
Most prerequisites to set up a functional environment for LSM-VIA are required on the EVS server side.
• The controlled EVS servers have to be XT-VIA servers.
• The EVS server shall run at least Multicam 20.2.
