If you have one or more LiveAction appliances, you can use the Device Management Server (DMS) to man- age and configure these appliances from the cloud. In order to use the DMS server for the LiveAction appli- ance, you must first enable the Enable DMS option in the LiveAdmin utility as described in Omni.
Note: When DMS is enabled, you can make local changes to the LiveAction
appliance using the LiveAdmin utility; however, changes made with the DMS will overwrite any
local changes made with the utility.
Note: All DMS communications require that the LiveAction appliance has
Internet access and is able to access various websites including https://mypeek.liveaction.com and https://cloudkeys.liveaction.com using TCP over port
443. If necessary, configure a DNS server to resolve the URLs above.
Additionally, all DMS communications are initiated by the LiveAction appliance, so it is not necessary to open a port in the firewall for communications.
To use DMS to manage and configure LiveAction appliances:
- Log into the LiveAction Customer Portal at https://cloudkeys.liveaction.com/. Note: A link to the LiveAction Customer Portal and a temporary password is emailed to the customer whenever a LiveAction appliance is purchased. Use the customer email and temporary password to log into the customer portal. You will be required to change the temporary password upon first login.
- Click the LIVEWIRE/LIVECAPTURE tab at the top of the portal to configure the appliances. The LiveAction appliances associated with the user account are displayed.
