IP Input Configurations

IP Input configurations
The headend system includes basic IPTV functionality which enables
service delivery over a packet-switched network infrastructure. To
handle IP input through the Link sockets the following requirements
must be satisfied:
 IP multicast streaming (UDP streaming)
 Possibility of RTP
 IGMP version 2
 SPTS or MPTS including PAT, PMT, CAT
Important:
 The TDX headend system supports up to 7 TS packets per IP
packet at IP inputs.
 The TDX headend system does not support IP fragmentation at
IP inputs, which may occur if the IP packets are transmitted over
a network with a Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) less than
approximately 80 + N*188 bytes, where N is the number of
packets per IP packet..
 Recommended settings are 7 TS packets per IP packet and a
minimum MTU of 1500 bytes in the entire network path.
Note:
Licenses for IP input are required to be able to use the IPTV
functionality in the headend. The licenses can be purchased from Triax
Sales, and need to be activated, see "Activating licenses".
