NTP settings
A Network Time Protocol (NTP) server can also be configured on your encoder to keep
the date and time current and accurate.
Note: If the device is connected to a public network, you should use a NTP server that
has a time synchronization function, such as the server at the National Time Center (IP
Address: 210.72.145.44) or europe.ntp.pool.org. If the device is set up in a more
customized network, NTP software can be used to establish a NTP server used for time
synchronization.
To set up an NTP server:
1. From the menu toolbar, click Configuration and then Remote Configuration >
Network Settings > NTP. The NTP window appears.
2. Select Enable NTP. It is disabled by default.
3. Enter the NTP settings:
• Interval (min): Time in minutes to synchronize with the NTP server. The value
can be between 1 and 10080 minutes. Default is 60 minutes.
• NTP Server: IP address of the NTP server. Default is time.nist.gov.
• NTP Port: Port of the NTP server.
4. Click Save to save the settings.
QoS settings
Configure the QoS (Quality of Service) to help solve network delay and network
congestion by configuring the priority of data sending. The use of a QoS-aware network
can prioritize traffic and thus allow critical flows to be served before flows with lower
priority.
To set up QoS settings:
1. From the menu toolbar, click Configuration and then Remote Configuration >
Network Settings > QoS. The QoS window appears.
2. Select Enable QoS. It is disabled by default.
3. Enter the DSCP (Differentiated Services Codepoint) value for the video/audio,
event/alarm and management traffic. This value is used to mark the traffic’s IP
header. The DSCP value defines the priority level for the specified type of traffic. For
example, how much bandwidth to reserve for it.
4. Click Save to save the settings.
Email settings
The encoder can send email notifications of alarms or notifications through the network.
Note: Ensure that the DNS address has been set up correctly beforehand.
