In the "Security" tab, you can decide who can access a Webcast in the WebcastConsumer.
You can allow access:
- only to browsers connecting with certain external IP addresses
- only to browsers referred referred by link to the Webcast from certain domains
- only to viewers with specific email addresses or domains
- only to viewers who enter a pre-defined access code
- using a HMAC token.
You can configure combinations of these options, in which case all sets of conditions must be satisfied before access is granted: the IP range is checked first, then the referrer domain, then the password and finally the registered email address.
If configured for your account, you can also enable or disable Peer-to-Peer video distribution. When enabled, the live video traffic is distributed within your network, reducing pressure on your company's external network bandwidth.
SSO Groups
Wildcard For SSO groups, you can use wildcard group names (indicated by the * symbol) are now supported for SSO groups.
To Permit permit access to SSO groups, you can add either a full name such as “Marketing” and “Management” "Marketing" and "Management," or a wildcard such as “Ma*” "Ma*" for SSO groups.
In the second case, note Note that the wildcard implies any group starting with "Ma. You " Therefore, you should not enter the wildcard at the beginning or in the middle such as Ma or Ma.
Use wildcard email addresses (indicated by *) to catch any email address starting with the specified characters.
For example, Ma or M*a.* will catch Mary@example.com and Mark@example.com.
SSO permitted email addresses
In addition to permitting access to SSO groups, you can now add SSO-permitted e-mail addresses.
Specifically, this enables individual employees to log into Webcast Consumer using their SSO IDs.
Use wildcard email addresses (indicated by *) to catch any email address starting with the specified characters.
SSO Permitted UUIDs
Add permitted UUIDs to Webcast Manager to enable employees to sign in using SSO based on their internal UUIDs.
Bulk import of SSO permitted attributes
You can import multiple SSO-permitted email addresses or UUIDs by uploading a comma-separated-values file containing entries for either SSO emails or UUIDs.
The input is then validated, and the imported entries are shown, along with those that were excluded. Invalid entries might be email addresses with empty spaces or typos.
If you want to correct invalid entries, you can download the list of excluded entries to correct them and re-import it.
You can also remove the complete list of entries, including both successfully imported entries and excluded entries.
IP Range
To permit access only to browsers from specific IP addresses or ranges, check the option Permit access by IP range. Then, you can enter either a single IPv4 address in the format 123.234.123.234, or an IPv4 range in the format 123.234.123.234/24. This second format is known as CIDR notation and is a short form of including a whole subnet of addresses. More information on the CIDR notation is available here: Classless Inter-Domain Routing.
