If on a domain,
the domain that manages the account that this MDI uses to access the K2 Summit
system.
Note: Do not enter a domain or
otherwise modify account settings except under the supervision of qualified
Grass Valley Support personnel. Extensive system configuration is required to

password that this MDI uses to access the K2 Summit
system. |
| FTP Server Name
|
The FTP server name for the remote K2
Summit system. For the typical system where there is a
separate FTP network, this is the name of the K2 SAN's FTP
server with the _he0 suffix
added. The _he0 suffix specifies the FTP network. |
| FTP User Account

The FTP user

If you changed MDI settings, you
must restart the GV STRATUS Core server system and the K2 Summit
system. If SAN MDI settings, you must restart the entire K2 SAN system,
including K2 Media Servers, attached K2 Summit systems, and other SAN
clients. If you are changing
multiple K2 Summit MDI settings, you can make all those settings first before
restarting these systems. Restarting the systems once is sufficient for multiple
K2 Summit MDI settings changes.
