For each Zixi Broadcaster component that has been added to the cluster, you will need to configure the connection of the Zixi Broadcaster (using its Zixi Broadcaster UI). This includes configuring the SSH tunnel. This can either be done manually by entering the configuration settings into the zixi Broadcaster UI or automatically using the ZEN Master tab in the Zixi Broadcaster UI (for v12+ Broadcasters). For our use case, we will be using the automatic method.
To connect the Zixi Broadcaster Automatically (for v12 and above):
- In ZEN Master, in the main navigation, click Configuration.
- In the SSH Security & Keys tab, click Download on the relevant SSH Key to download key to your machine.
- Login to the Zixi Broadcaster UI (it could be a locally installed Zixi Broadcaster, e.g. http://localhost:4444 or a remote Zixi Broadcaster).
The Zixi Broadcaster UI opens. - Go to Settings > ZEN Master.
The ZEN Master login fields are displayed. - In the Account ID field, enter the customer domain of your ZEN Master account (e.g. if you login to ZEN Master at demo.zen.zixi.com then your Account ID is 'demo').
- In the Email field, enter the username for your ZEN Master account.
- In the Password field, enter the password for your ZEN Master account.
- Click Login.
A list of Manual Broadcaster Clusters that are configured in ZEN Master is displayed. - Click on the Broadcaster Cluster to which you would like to add this Broadcaster.
A list of Broadcasters in that cluster is shown at the bottom of the screen. - For the Broadcaster that you are adding, which should currently be in Pending mode, click Select.
Details about the ZEN Master connection are shown in the status section. - Click Refresh.
The connection is configured automatically. - Verify that the Status is shown as On.
