Replicate single ingest to multiple servers

I have a problem where I need to feed content from a video encoder to multiple servers to distribute content. I would like to know how to get one feed to server out to multiple servers. They will be on the same vlan, F5 to servers but the origin servers will be on the internet. Does anyone know of a solution and how easy it would be to implement and what load it might place on the F5’s

 

 

Cheers

    Hi John,

     

     

    What protocol do you want to use to do this? Which LTM version are you trying to do this with?

     

     

    You could potentially use sideband connections to do this:

    Aaron,

     

     

    Thanks for the reply. I'm looking at port 80 and 554. So Windows Media, Smooth, Real etc.
