Metadata
Data of a POS or ATM like date and time or bank
account number stored with the corresponding
video data to provide additional information for
evaluation.
MHT
Also called 'Web Archive'. File format that can
save all HTML and image files of an Internet site in

create MHT files with Internet Explorer 7.0 or
higher only.
MPEG-4
Motion Picture Expert Group. Standard for
encoding (compressing) digital audio and video
for multimedia applications.
MSS
Maximum Segment Size. The largest amount of
data, specified in bytes, that a computer or
communications device can handle in a single,
unfragmented piece.
MTU
Maximum Transmission Unit. Describes the
maximum amount of data (in bytes) that can be
transferred without being fragmented.
Multicast
Communication between a single transceiver and
multiple receivers on a network by distribution of
a single data stream on the network to a number
of receivers in a defined group. Requirement for
multicast operation is a multicast compliant
network with implementation of the UDP protocol
and the IGMP protocol.
Network monitoring
Measurement of network related values and
evaluation of these values against configurable
thresholds.
NVR

Bosch Video Management System storing audio
and video data, acting as Failover NVR, or as
2013.03 | V1 | Configuration Client
Redundant NVR. This NVR is different from the
VIDOS NVR which can be integrated in Bosch
Video Management System.

Port
1) On computer and telecommunication devices, a
port (noun) is generally a specific place for being
physically connected to some other device,
usually with a socket and plug of some kind.
Typically, a personal computer is provided with
one or more serial ports and usually one parallel
port. 2) In programming, a port (noun) is a "logical
connection place" and specifically, using the
Internet protocol, TCP/IP, the way a client
program specifies a particular server program on a
computer in a network. Higher-level applications
that use TCP/IP such as the Web protocol,
Hypertext Transfer Protocol, have ports with
preassigned numbers. These are known as "well-
known ports" that have been assigned by the
Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA).
Other application processes are given port
numbers dynamically for each connection. When a
service (server program) initially is started, it is
said to bind to its designated port number. As any
client program wants to use that server, it also
must request to bind to the designated port
number. Port numbers are from 0 to 65535. Ports
1 to 1023 are reserved for use by certain
privileged services. For the HTTP service, port 80
is defined as a default and it does not have to be
specified in the Uniform Resource Locator (URL).
Port mapping
Port mapping allows remote computers to
connect to a specific computer or service within a
private local area network (LAN).
