You can use Settings > Common Assets > Radio Stations to manage the credentials that your radio station uses to authenticate itself with the Triton Digital Streaming Network.

Also see:

For each radio station that you manage in Triton, you can have up to two station keys. This lets you manage the security of your radio station streaming.

Examples:

  • Reset a station key any time of day without disrupting your streaming.

  • Prevent decommissioned encoders from accidentally connecting to Triton.

  • Update a station key for employee off-boarding.

How Station Credentials Work

Your Triton station’s name and its station key form the credentials that you enter in Station Manager or your third-party encoder. The Triton Digital Streaming Network uses these credentials to authenticate your radio station for streaming.

  1. Station name: All uppercase letters. This is different than your station’s Display name.

  2. Station key: This access key is case sensitive. It must be at least 16 characters, and must contain contain only uppercase letters, lowercase letters, and numerical digits.

Do not share a station key

A station key is a secure way to authenticate your radio station with the Triton Digital Streaming Network. Only use it with Station Manager or your third-party encoder.

Reset a Station Key

You reset a station key by creating a new key, entering it into Station Manager or your third party encoder, confirming that your encoder has successfully authenticated with the new key, then deleting the old key.

Delete a Station Key

Deleting a station key cannot be undone!

Do not delete a station key until you confirm that it is no longer needed. Triton refuses connections from Station Manager and third-party encoders that try to use a deleted station key.
