Change multicast address for the boot image and splash screen channel

Precondition

A boot image and a splash screen is currently distributed on a multicast address that for some reason needs to be changed.

Main flow

  1. Edit the /opt/infocast/infocastconfig.xml file on the Infocast Server.
    • Change the IP address and port number for the boot image channel.
  2. Edit the /opt/infocast/bootcast file on the Infocast Server.
    • Change the IP multicast address and port number.
  3. Restart the active Infocast server:

    service infocastserverd restart

    Note! Keep the notes under Managing an environment with redundant Infocast Servers in mind if you have several active Infocast Servers in your network.

Post condition

The boot image is distributed on the new multicast address.
