Your network contains two servers named Server1 and Server2 that have the Streaming Media
Services role installed. Server1 is located in a subnet named Subnet1. Server2 is located in a subnet
named Subnet2.
Server1 has an on-demand publishing point named Content1. Content1 has a 1-Mbps bit rate.
Server2 is configured as a cache/proxy server.
You need to ensure that users on Subnet2 can stream Content1 from Server2. The solution must
ensure that Content1 is available on Server2 before the users request the stream. What should you
modify?
A.
the Cache settings on Server1
B.
the Prestuff settings on Server2
C.
the Proxy settings on Server1
D.
the Cache settings on Server2
Explanation:
WMS Cache Proxy – Prestuff properties You can configure the following options on the Prestuff tab
for this plug-in. Item Description Prestuff from Stream Select this option to enable this server to
cache content by streaming it from the origin server, even when it is not requested by clients. Type
the URL of the file on the origin server in the URL box (for example,
http://server/publishing_point/file), and then select one of the following Prestuff Rate options that
specify the speed at which this server caches content from the origin server: Maximum Available
Bandwidth. Choose this option to cache content from the origin server as fast as the network will
allow. Content Bit Rate. Choose this option to cache content from the origin server at the same bit
rate as the requested content bit rate. Note that for MBR content, the caching speed is the same as
the average bit rate of the content. Kbps. Enter a value in this box to specify the bit rate at which this
server caches content from the origin server.
Prestuff from
File
Select this option to enable this server to make a file on an available file storage system, such as a
local file system, storage area network (SAN), or network-attached storage (NAS), available for
streaming to clients. To copy the file from file storage to the cache directory on this server and make
it available to clients before it is requested, do the following:
Type the UNC path of the file in the Content Path box (for example, \\server\folder\file or
network_share\file).
Type the URL that clients must use to stream the file in the Stream URL box (for example,
rtsp://server/
publishing_point/file or http://server/publishing_point/file). Select the Copy content to local cache
directory check box.
To copy the file from file storage to the cache directory on this server only after a client requests it,
do the following:
1. Type the UNC path of the file in the Content Path box.
2. Type the URL that clients must use to stream the file in the Stream URL box. for example,
rtsp://server/publishing_point/file or http://server/publishing_point/file).
3. Select the Copy content to local cache directory check box.
Make sure that the Copy content to local cache directory check box is not selected.Note that this server cannot use freshness checking to determine whether the file in the file storage
system has been updated. It the file has been updated, you must click Prestuff to cache the updated
file to the cache directory. Prestuff Click this button to start caching the specified content from the
origin server, even when it is not requested by clients.
