Required Network Configuration For Equipment
To ensure that DIGICAST equipment operates correctly within client corporate networks, the following configurations are required. Depending on the specific network and equipment, Information Technology (IT) departments may request various details when configuring networks to support DIGICAST broadcast and AV equipment.
LiveU Encoders
Below is a list of networks ports utilized by LiveU encoders. Traffic on these ports must be allowed to be send and received from within networks which will be used for broadcast.
TCP In / out
| Service | Destination IP | TCP Port(s) |
| LiveU Server Services | 184.95.218.226 173.224.128.138 | 1935, 18255, 10022, |
UDP In / Out
| Service | Destination IP | UDP Port(s) |
| LiveU Server Services | 184.95.218.226 173.224.128.138 | 9000-9010, 8601-8608 |
Below is a list mac addresses for each LiveU encoders ethernet port. These may be needed by on site networking teams. They could be used for whitelisting the LiveU`s within network equipment to allow for internet access.

Bandwidth Requirements
Bandwidth consumption fluctuates depending on how many languages the webcast contains and if the use of a video conferencing codec is required. The table below outlines the bandwidth needed to conduct various types of webcasts
| 1 language (Two LiveU encoders) | 20 mb\s |
| 2 languages (Four LiveU encoders) | 40 mb\s |
| Video conferencing (VMR or Teams) | 6 mb\s |
| Tech Table | 20 mb\s |
| Magewell (2 Encoders) | 5 mb\s - 10mb\s |
| GreenGo (Communication) | <2mb\s |
