Network Management

SNMP
The camera supports two versions of Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) for
managing and monitoring network components, and can send SNMP messages (traps) to IP
addresses. The unit supports SNMP MIB II in the unified code.
Select either of the options that follow for the SNMP parameter:
–
–
If you select either of the SNMP version, but do not enter an SNMP host address, the camera
does not send messages (traps) automatically, but only replies to SNMP requests.
Select Off to deactivate the SNMP function.
1. SNMP host address / 2. SNMP host address
If you wish to send SNMP traps automatically, enter the IP addresses of one or two required
target units here.
The three (3) subchapters that follow identify the fields that appear depending on the option
that you select in the field SNMP.

Multicast

The camera can enable multiple receivers to receive the video signal simultaneously. The
stream is either duplicated and then distributed to multiple receivers (Multi-unicast), or it is
sent as a single stream to the network, where it is simultaneously distributed to multiple
receivers in a defined group (Multicast).
Multicast operation requires a multicast-enabled network that uses UDP and the Internet
Group Management protocol (IGMP V2). The network must support group IP addresses. Other
group management protocols are not supported. The TCP protocol does not support multicast
connections.
A special IP address from 225.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255 (class D address) must be configured
for multicast operation in a multicast-enabled network. The multicast address can be the same
for multiple streams, however, it is necessary to use a different port in each case.
The settings must be made individually for each stream. Enter a dedicated multicast address
and port for each stream. Switch between the streams by clicking the appropriate tabs.
Enable
Enable simultaneous data reception on receivers that need to activate the multicast function.
To do this, check the box and enter the multicast address.
Multicast Address
Enter a valid multicast address to be operated in multicast mode (duplication of the data
stream in the network).
With a 0.0.0.0 setting, the encoder for the stream operates in multi-unicast mode (copying of
data stream in device). The camera supports multi-unicast connections for up to five
simultaneously connected receivers.
Duplication of data places a heavy demand on the CPU and can lead to impairment of the
image quality under certain circumstances.
