All the outputs created in Zixi Feeder within the same group and with the same host name, will be resolved into the same IP address. You can Create a New Output Group or Use an Existing Output Groupcan create a new output group or use an existing output group. See Output Groups.
  7. In the Host field, specify the IP address of the stream destination.
  8. In the Port field, specify the port of the destination.
