Chapter 3 Configuring and Managing the IP Camera
Setup Windows
Enable HTTPS
Alternative Port
Check this check box to enable Internet access to the IP camera through an
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.
