Configuration: Reflector > Multicast

Use this page to configure a Multicast destination. As noted, the Reflector sends exactly what is received, and for this reason, the configured destinations do not let you select different video and audio rates. The Reflector will only transmit multicast when the source stream is being received. See Configuration: Encoder > Multicast on page 35 for a description of the fields on this page.

Configuration: Reflector > Announce (SAP)

Use this page to configure a session announcement. Reflector announcements automatically start and stop depending on the availability of the Reflector source stream. See Configuration: Encoder > Announce (SAP) on page 38 for a description of the fields on this page.
