Installing and configuring SiteConfig support for client PCs on corporate LAN

Before installing software, make sure the client PC meets system requirements, especially regarding Windows operating system and .NET version.

Use this topic to install software (if necessary) and configure PCs that are on the corporate LAN to prepare them for SiteConfig software deployment. This topic does not prepare the PC for SiteConfig network configuration, which requires that the SiteConfig Discovery Agent be installed. Since IT policies at many customer site's prohibit installation of software such as the SiteConfig Discovery Agent on corporate LAN PCs, this topic prepares the PC for software deployment only, without installing the Discovery Agent.

On the PC that hosts the SiteConfig application, navigate to the directory at which SiteConfig is installed. By default the location is C:\Program Files (x86)\Grass Valley\SiteConfig.
Copy the contents of the ConnectivityKit directory to a USB thumb drive, network drive, or some other shared location to make it easier to distribute to each corporate LAN PC.
To install and configure SiteConfig support locally at a corporate LAN PC, do the following:
1. Copy the contents of the ConnectivityKit directory to the corporate LAN PC.
2. On the corporate LAN PC, run \Connectivity Kit\setup.exe. If necessary, .NET software is installed.
3. Open firewall port settings on the PC as follows.
