[AG-TECH] Avoiding problems - Multicast groups and also unicast bridges



As a last step in getting a FC5 AGTK 3.0 Venue Server up, I have two questions that deal with avoiding problems

1) How do people pick multicast addresses and ports such that they don't use what someone else is using already?  It looks like the tool will dynamically pick addresses / ports or give an option to pick static ones, something I think we prefer to do.  Is this a good thing to do?

2) I want my unicast bridge to be used only by people who VPN into my server (I think).  If it is behind a firewall, I know that I'll contribute to the long delays AGTK 3.0 Client users will experience.  Can I tell the bridge to not let anyone know that it exists (except those joining my venue, of course)?

Sorry if this has been answered in FAQs or mailing list, I've tried to find this information for sometime.  If it is there, point me towards it.  I'll develop better search techniques based on the pointer.
