General Settings
Maximum number of concurrent streaming connection(s) limited to: Simultaneous live viewing for
1~10 clients (including stream 1 to stream 3). The default value is 10. If you modify the value and
click Save, all current connections will be disconnected and automatically attempt to re-link (IE
Explorer or Quick Time Player).
View Information: Click this button to display the connection status window showing a list of the
current connections. For example:
Note that only consoles that are currently displaying live streaming will be listed in the View
Information list.
■ IP address: Current connections to the Network Camera.
■ Elapsed time: How much time the client has been at the webpage.
■ User ID: If the administrator has set a password for the webpage, the clients have to enter a
user name and password to access the live video. The user name will be displayed in the User
ID column. If the administrator allows clients to link to the webpage without a user name and
password, the User ID column will be empty.
There are some situations that allow clients access to the live video without a user name and
password:
1. The administrator does not set up a root password. For more information about how to set up
a root password and manage user accounts, please refer to Security > User account on page
75.
2. The administrator has set up a root password, but set RTSP Authentication to “disable“. For
more information about RTSP Authentication, please refer to RTSP Streaming on page 66.
3. The administrator has set up a root password, but allows anonymous viewing. For more
information about Allow Anonymous Viewing, please refer to page 75.
