Viewing publishing point details

When you click a publishing point in the console tree, the details pane displays a set of tabs. The information available on some of the tabs differs slightly depending on whether the publishing point is on-demand or broadcast. You can use these tabs to perform tasks related to publishing points, such as modifying the content source, changing the publishing point properties, and adding advertisements. The Announce tab, which you can use to create announcements that direct clients to your content, is only available in the Windows Media Services snap-in.

This section contains the following topics:

• About publishing points
• About the Monitor tab for a publishing point
• About the Source tab for a publishing point
• About the Advertising tab for a publishing point
• About the Announce tab for a publishing point
• About the Properties tab for a publishing point

Note

• Some options can be set at both the publishing point level and the server level. If a publishing point setting conflicts with a server setting, the server setting overrides the publishing point setting.
