11.2 Notes on network connections

11.2.1 Background information

The user would like to connect to the smart camera with their client via web browser. For this to
work,
1. the smart camera's IP address or host name must be known or found, and
2. a data packet route to this IP address or host name must exist.
Point 2 is relatively simple, as only a single route has to exist between the client and the server.
Routers (and routing tables) as well as port forwarding are available for this purpose. However, for
point 1, conveniently locating the smart camera, the mDNS broadcasts must be available, which is
normally suppressed by routers. The server essentially publishes its settings via Avahi and mDNS.
The client can initially use the host name printed on the smart camera.
Different problems need to be overcome with different solutions depending on the network
topology. These are discussed below.
