BRICKCOM IPCAM HTTP API

Preface

This document specifies the Brickcom IPCAM HTTP API which enables applications to
access and/or configure the IP Cameras manufactured by Brickcom over a TCP/IP
capable network. Developers who wish to write their own utility should follow the API
specification herein.

Overview

Brickcom IPCAM HTTP API is the proprietary network control protocol designed by
Brickcom Technology to enable applications to access IP Cameras manufactured by
Brickcom. The API allows for configuration of the settings and inquiry of current status on
these IP Cameras. The API is structured and transmitted over HTTP protocols and hence
is given the name HTTP API.
The complete API is further divided into several categories for ease of management. We
dedicate one chapter for each API category to better expound on that API subset.
