Option

 

Description

 

 

 

Enable HTTPS

 

Check this check box to enable Internet access to the IP camera through an

Alternative Port

HTTPS port other than the default port 443. If you enable this option, enter

 

 

a port number from 1024 through 65535.

 

 

If you configure an alternative HTTPS port, you must specify the port

 

 

number in the URL for the IP camera when you access it through an HTTPS

 

 

connection. For example, if the IP address of the IP camera is 192.168.1.100

 

 

and the alternative HTTPS port is 1024, enter this URL for the IP camera:

 

 

https://192.168.1.100:1024.

 

 

 

RTP/RTSP

 

 

 

 

 

RTSP Port

 

Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) port on which the IP camera receives

 

 

Real-Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP) commands. You must configure this

 

 

port to allow third-party devices or software to access video streams from the

 

 

IP camera.

 

 

RTSP is a standard for connecting a client to control streaming data

 

 

(MPEG-4) over the web.

 

 

Valid values are 554 and 1024 through 65535. The default value is 554.

 

 

 

RTP Data Port

 

Universal Data Protocol (UDP) port on which the IP camera transmits

 

 

Real-Time Transport Protocol (RTP) data.

 

 

RTP is a standard for transmitting real-time data, such as audio and video, to

 

 

a selected clients.

 

 

Valid values are 1024 through 65535. The default value is 5000. The default

 

 

value can be used for multicasting and typically does not need to be changed.

 

 

Max RTP Data Packet

Maximum number of bytes per data packet that are sent in each RTP request.

 

 

Configure a lower number if you are streaming video to a cell phone that

 

 

requires smaller data packets.

 

 

Valid values are 400 through 1400. The default value is 1400.

 

 

Enable Multicast

Check this check box to send video and audio data as a multicast stream.

 

 

When multicast is enabled, the IP camera sends video and audio to the

 

 

multicast addresses that you designate. Multicast enables multiple devices to

 

 

receive the video signal from the IP camera simultaneously.

 

 

Note This feature is not currently supported if you use the IP camera with

 

 

Cisco VSM.

 

 

 

Video Address

 

Appears if you enabled multicast. Enter the multicast IP address on which

 

 

the IP camera sends a video stream.

 

 

The default value is 224.2.0.1.

 

 

 

Video Port

 

Appears if you enabled multicast. Enter the port on which the IP camera

 

 

sends a multicast video stream.

 

 

Valid values are even numbers 1024 through 65534. The default value is

 

 

2240.
