Authentication (digest): User credentials are encrypted with MD5 algorithm which provides
better protection against unauthorized access.
Access name for stream 1 ~ 3: The camera supports multiple streams simultaneously. The
access name is used to differentiate the streaming source.
If you want to use an RTSP player to access the camera, you have to set the video mode to
H.264 or H.265 and use the following RTSP URL command to request transmission of the
streaming data.
rtsp://<ip address>:<rtsp port>/<access name for stream 1 to 3>
For example, when the access name for stream 1 is set to live.sdp:
1. Launch an RTSP player.
2. Choose File  Open URL. A URL dialog box will pop up.
3. Type the above URL command in the text box.
4. The live video will be displayed in your player.
RTSP port /RTP port for video / RTCP port for video:
•
RTSP (Real-Time Streaming Protocol) controls the delivery of streaming media. By
default, the RTSP port number is set to 554.
•
The RTP (Real-time Transport Protocol) is used to deliver video data to the clients. By
default, the RTP port for video is set to 5556.
•
The RTCP (Real-time Transport Control Protocol) allows the camera to transmit the data
by monitoring the Internet traffic volume. By default, the RTCP port for video is set to
5557.
The ports can be changed to values between 1025 and 65535. The RTP port must be an even
number and the RTCP port is the RTP port number plus one, and thus is always an odd
number. When the RTP port changes, the RTCP port will change accordingly.
RTP port for metadata: By default, the RTP port for metadata is set to 6556.
RTCP port for metadata: By default, the RTCP port for video is set to 6557.
