Description
SAP Address
The default
value is
224.2.127.254
and the port
used is 9875.
This text box enables you to change the value of
SAP/ SDP multicast address used by the unit.
The default value is 224.2.127.254 and the port
used is 9875.
These are standard multicast values for such
parameters, and it is recommended they are not
changed unless specially required due to routing
restrictions.
Port
10000 or above
Protocols like TCP or UDP use port numbers in the
header to direct traffic around the network. Low port
numbers are used by computer systems for
predefined tasks. For example SMPT (for your email
service) uses port 25.
A good rule is to use numbers above 10,000 to avoid
conflict with existing services.
When you set up a port number on several
computers on a network they will all listen for
packets directed to that port.
The default value is random.
Service Name
Mesh Streaming
This text box lets you name the multicast stream as
delivered in the SAP/SDP packets from the unit.
Default is Mesh Streaming.
Stream Enable
Select or Clear
This enables the streaming of Video that originates
from the internal encoder (if it is fitted). This must
be selected for UDP multicast, RTSP multicast
streaming or RTSP unicast streaming.
Table 3-15 – Streamer Settings Pane
Step 8a: Configure the Scrambling Settings Pane (7)
It can be very important to scramble received assets before they are passed across
networks.
The system offers DES, AES128 and AES 256 and this encrypts all user data exchanged
across the network.
The DES+, AES128+ and AES256+ settings make sure that the network will only process
encrypted data. Any data sent in the clear by any nodes will not be presented or accepted by
a NETNode if the DES+ or AES+ is set on the unit.
This drop-down box enables you to select the scrambling scheme you wish to use. You can
select: AES128, AES128+, AES256, AES256+, DES, DES+. Only licensed features will be
shown in the drop-down box.
