Verifying Signed M-JPEG AVI Files

Verifying Signed M-JPEG AVI Files

Schneider Electric has included a simple command line utility that lets you verify that digitally signed M-JPEG files have not been tampered with since they were generated by your NetBotz appliance. This command line utility, AVIVRFY.BAT, is automatically installed along with the Advanced View and can be accessed from the Advanced View installation directory. In Windows installations, AVIVRFY.BAT appears as avivrfy.bat and in Linux installations, as avi-vrfy.

To use this utility, open a command line session and change directories to the Advanced View installation directory. Type the following at the command line where avifilename.avi is the filename of the AVI file that you want to verify, and press Enter.

avivrfy avifilename.avi

Note: If the AVI file is not stored in the same directory as the AVIVRFY.BAT program, be sure to specify the fully qualified path to the file as part of avifilename.

AVIVRFY.BAT can verify multiple signed AVIs simultaneously. To verify multiple AVIs, append additional avifilename parameters to the command. For example, using the command would verify three AVI files, named sampl.avi, sample1.avi, and sample2.avi simultaneously.

avivrfy sample.avi sample1.avi sample2.avi

Output Examples

Here is an example of the output that AVIVRFY.BAT generates when used on a valid signed AVI file:

sample.avi is valid
