Configuration
HTTP
Authentication: Depending on your network security requirements, the camera
provides two types of security settings for streaming via HTTP protocol: basic and
digest. If basic authentication is selected, the password is sent in plain text format,
but there can be potential risks of it being intercepted. If digest authentication is
selected, user credentials are encrypted using MD5 algorithm, thus providing better
protection against unauthorized access.
Access name for stream 1 ~ 5: This camera supports multiple streams simultaneously.
The access name is used to differentiate the streaming source. If you are using Mozilla
Firefox to access the camera, when the video mode is set to JPEG, users will receive
video comprised of continuous JPEG images This technology, known as "server
push", allows the camera to feed live pictures to Firefox. Use the following HTTP URL
command to request transmission of the streaming data:
For example: http://<ip address>:<http port>/<access name for stream 1 ~ 5>
For example, when the Access name for stream 3 is set to video3.mjpg:
1. Launch Firefox.
2. Type the above URL command in the address bar. Press Enter.
3. The JPEG images will be displayed in your web browser.
NOTE:
1. Internet Explorer does not support "server push" technology. Therefore, if you attempt
to use http://<ip address>:<http port>/<access name for stream 1 ~ 5>, you will fail
to access the camera.
2. Stream 5 is a special stream. Users can only use URL commands to request stream 5.
RTSP Streaming
Authentication: Depending on your network security requirements, the camera provides three types of security settings for streaming via RTSP
protocol: disable, basic, and digest. If basic authentication is selected, the password is sent in plain text format, but there can be potential risks of
it being intercepted. If digest authentication is selected, user credentials are encrypted using MD5 algorithm, thus providing better protection
against unauthorized access.
