A COS Configuration has two primary functions:
- It allows you to logically group Testing Devices and COS – SDs.
- It allows you to easily specify the settings for all the devices in the COS Configuration.
The particular information you need to know varies based on how you plan to perform online testing. Listed below are the online testing setup options (A and B) that are available.
Important: DRC strongly recommends using Testing Setup A with COS – SDs configured for Content Management and Content Hosting.
