  4. In the Info section, in the Name field, type a logical name for the Source.

  5. In the Tags field, select one or more of the predefined Tags from the drop-down list.
    Tags are used for access control. By selecting a Tag, you are relating this Source to that Tag. Tags are associated with certain roles (through the Users & Roles screen), and roles, in turn, are associated with users and user groups. If you would like to create a new Tag, see Creating a Tag.

  6. In the Events Configuration Profile field, select from the dropdown list the profile that you would like to apply to this Source. By default, the Default profile is applied. Events Profiles consist of a series of rules that determine precisely how various types of Events are logged and what results they trigger.

  7. In the Input section, under Protocol, select the CDI radio button.

  8. In the Ingest Port field, enter the port that the Flow will listen on for incoming content.

  9. In the Max sync buffer field, specify the size of the buffer (in ms) to use to sync incoming source data.

  10. In the Initial State section, select the Muted checkbox if you would like to disable error/recovery notifications for this Source upon initial configuration. You can Unmute the Source at any time.
