CyberData Products and InformaCast Fusion Registration

InformaCast Fusion uses DNS SRV records for service discovery of IP speakers, the Desktop Notifier, and the Paging Gateway. [1, 2]  

How DNS SRV works with InformaCast [3]  

• IP speakers use DNS SRV to locate the InformaCast resource directory. [3]  
• The Desktop Notifier uses DNS SRV to auto-discover InformaCast and download its configuration file. [2]  
• The Paging Gateway uses DNS SRV to discover the service of the InformaCast server. [1]  

How to check DNS SRV records [2]  

• On Windows, use the nslookup command to check DNS SRV records. 
• On Mac or Linux, use the host command to check DNS SRV records. 

How to troubleshoot DNS issues [4, 5, 6]  

• If you're having trouble with DNS, you can try these steps: 
1. Log into the InformaCast CLI and run the configure-network command. 
2. Adjust the DNS server references to valid DNS servers. 
3. Perform a DNS PTR record lookup for the IP addresses of the DNS servers. 
4. Ensure that your DNS infrastructure supports EDNS. 

DNS SRV support [3]  
Not all speaker manufacturers support DNS SRV. You can check your vendor's firmware documentation for support. [3]
