Workplace Requirements

Although all Workplace plans include Live video streaming, HIVE for Workplace is only included in the /wiki/spaces/FB/pages/2458681524 - available for all Workplace Core customers to purchase.  If you are unsure what is included with your Workplace plan, please contact your Workplace account team.

titleWorkplace IT Configuration

Workplace has its own networking requirements, detailed here.

Understanding Hive Streaming Requirements

Hive Streaming's browser-based distribution technology (HIVE WebRTC) is enabled by default in Workplace Enterprise Live.  However, customers may upgrade to the installed HIVE Agent to enable more advanced use cases, including support for non-WebRTC compliant browsers, HIVE Silent Testing and custom network configurations.

HIVE WebRTC Endpoint Requirements

To support browser-based peer-to-peer distribution of live video, HIVE WebRTC requires a web browser that supports WebRTC data channels.

Browsers that do not support WebRTC data channels may still view Enterprise Live events, but they will not benefit from peer-to-peer distribution.

HIVE WebRTC Networking Requirements

HIVE WebRTC typically functions optimally on enterprise networks without any additional configuration.  However, IT Admins should review the following list to insure no required services are blocked.

Info
titleTry It Out!

You can verify HIVE WebRTC is supported on your network by loading the HIVE WebRTC reference player.  Share the URL https://webrtc.hivestreaming.com/workplace with other workers in your network and watch the test video together for several minutes to verify your browsers are able to reach the Hive Streaming Cloud Services and connect with other browsers on the network to distribute video fragments.  Click here for more information on the HIVE WebRTC reference player.
