ViewBoard®
Network Requirement
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.

connected via an Ethernet cable, and client devices on a 5GHz Wi-Fi band.
