Procedure
Viewing video from behind a firewall
To view video from behind a firewall using the WebView-HTTP protocol, you
must specify the HTTP proxy settings. You can set the same settings as the
HTTP proxy specified in your Web browser. If you want to access video from
behind a firewall, select WV-HTTP protocol. (See P.45 for details.)
● "Auto select connection"
Use this setting when you do not know
the details of the connection
environment. When this option is
selected, the viewer first tries to connect
using WebView-TCP and then tries
WebView-HTTP.
● "WV-TCP protocol connection"
This setting uses the WebView-TCP
protocol used specifically by WebView
for TCP connections. To penetrate
firewalls with this protocol, a dedicated
application gateway is required.
