Introduction

These notes will introduce the network requirements for ViewBoard®’s preloaded software and help IT administrators setup ViewBoard® products in their IT infrastructure.

Ensure the wireless infrastructure supports broadcast service and is turned on. To get a stable transmission, it is strongly recommended to have ViewBoard® connected via an Ethernet cable, and client devices on a 5GHz Wi-Fi band.

Over-the-Air (OTA) Service

ViewBoard® automatically searches for firmware updates whenever connected to the Internet. With just one click or every time the ViewBoard is powered off, users can update their version of ViewBoard® firmware.

Network Information:

Over-the-Air Service

Air Class

Display quiz questions on ViewBoard® and allow up to 30 mobile users to submit answers remotely. Whether administrating single or multiple-choice questions, ViewBoard® will record the results of each device being used.

Network Information:

  • PC (Windows/Mac/Chromebook) and tablet/mobile (iOS/Android) devices, as well as ViewBoard®, need to be linked to the same LAN network subnet.
  • Server Port: TCP8080
Air Class

vCastReceiver & vCastSender Service

Working with ViewBoard® Cast software, the vCastReceiver app, will allow ViewBoard® to receive vCastSender laptop screens (Windows/Mac/Chrome) and mobile (iOS/Android) users’ screens, photos, videos, annotations, and camera(s). It is also compatible with Apple AirPlay®.

Network Information:

  • ViewBoard® Cast software, laptops, and mobile devices can connect to both the same subnet and across the subnet network.
  • Please enter the on-screen PIN-code to connect to the ViewBoard.
Enter PIN Code
  • Ports:
  • TCP 56789, 25123, 8121 & 8000
  • UDP 48689, 25123
  • Port and DNS for activation:
  • OTA Service:
vCastReceiver

AirPlay Service

Please ensure that DNS is enabled on the network/access point/wireless controller.

Network Information:

  • Ports:
  • TCP 51040, 51030, 51020 & 51010
  • UDP 5353 (mDNS to broadcast AirPlay)
  • How to verify AirPlay is broadcasting:
  1. Ensure that your iOS device and ViewBoard® are connected to the same subnet network.
  2. Open Control Center and touch AirPlay Mirroring on an iOS device, e.g. iPhone/iPad.
  3. You should see a device prefixed with "Cast-xxxx".
  4. If "Cast-xxxx" is showing then this confirms that the vCastReceiver is broadcasting AirPlay services.
  5. Click on the broadcasted "Cast-xxxx" device to mirror your iOS device to ViewBoard®.
