5.8 "Main > IP" Screen
The "Main > IP" screen (Figure 5.8) is a "read and write" screen to assign IP parameters for the TS:
1
1
Destination IP: allows user to assign the IP address of the equipment to which the IP output is streamed to. The
MPTS stream contains all 4 programs. Each SPTS P# IP contains one program from the respective input # (ie:
SPTS P1 is program input #1, SPTS P2 is program input #2 etc. )
The Destination IP Address must be present before streaming occurs, otherwise the session is aborted.
For Multicast applications, the IP address must be in the range of 224.0.0.0 through 239.255.255.255. For
Encapsulation: from the two available options (RTP & UDP) must select the one that matches the protocol used
2
by the receiving equipment.
Destination Port: must enter the IP Port of the receiving equipment. The factory default value is 50000. The
3
range is 1 to 65535.
4
Source Port: must enter the IP Port of the equipment that the input IP source is streamed from. The factory
default value is 50000. The range is 1 to 65535.
NOTE: Port number is recommended to be from 49152 to 65535. Reason: Port 1-1023 and 1024-
49151 are the Reserved Ports and the Registered Ports, respectively.
Time to Live: is an upper bound on the time that an IP packet can exist in an IP network. The value is set by the
5
sender of the packet, and reduced by every host on the route to packet's final destination. If the Time to Live
reaches zero before the packet arrives at its final destination, then the packet is discarded. The purpose of this
field is to avoid an undeliverable packet from circulating on an IP network perpetually. The range is 1 to 255.
Factory default value is 128.
6
Stuffing: Null packets are inserted to ensure that the TS bitrate assigned in
Possible options are Enable and Disable. It is advisable to Disable stuffing when only IP output is used to help
reduce the traffic on the network.
