Has anyone ever setup the Panopto Lecture Cast application with the LTM?

We are attempting to setup the Panopto (http://www.panopto.com/) application in out dev/test area. I am familiar with setting up the normal web server but I am not familiar with setting up the Live Streaming/Real Time Streaming virtual servers. I am currently load balancing all of the HTTP/HTTPS traffic but none of the streaming media traffic.

 

Can anyone give me a best practices for setting up the F5 LTM (v11.4) to support streaming with Microsoft streaming media services? The vendor support for the application stated they had "very few" clients doing this and they don't have much information on the setup.

 

Our application servers do not use the F5 as their DFG. So we will have to SNAT everything.

 

Ports in use by the application: Port 80 - Web traffic Port 8080 - Alternate Web traffic. Required for viewing recorded content. Port 1755 - Live Streaming/Broadcast Port 554 - Real Time Streaming Content (RTSP) Port 443 - SSL (optional)

 

Basic application diagrams from the vendor: http://support.panopto.com/documentation/admin-and-setup/how-panopto-works/panopto-deployed/panopto-server-architecture-lan-0 http://support.panopto.com/documentation/admin-and-setup/how-panopto-works/panopto-hosted/panopto-hosted-architecture

 

Any and all help is appreciated.

 

Thank you,

 

Adam
