On a Mac machine, you can find your router address by opening your system preferences menu, going to your network icon, clicking on the advances settings button, and then choosing the TCP/IP tab. Your router IP address generally has a default based on brand of router you are using, but you can always find it by typing "ipconfig" in the command prompt window of your Windows machine. This can be done by typing the IP address of your router into your browser. When opening ports on your network, the first thing you need to do is open your routers configuration page. Network ports exist on your network firewall, and have the same function- except that opening or closing ports on the network firewall controls access for ALL devices on that network. Ports in your computer's firewall control whether or not a program can access or be accessed by your computer. You can learn more about firewall ports here. If you have any doubts at all, contact your network administrator and have them handle the changes. DO NOT make any changes to your network's firewall unless you are completely confident in what you are doing. Changing your firewall settings deals directly with your network security, and can have consequences for your network far beyond broadcasting with IBM Video Streaming.
If changes do need to be made, make sure that your network administrator is aware of any changes that you propose.
