Protocol Option
The UDP Protocol should be chosen for the most users. Generally the client
computer will automatically try these protocols in the following order,
UDP -> TCP -> HTTP.
After the client connects to the DCS-5300 successfully, the working protocol
will be displayed in “Protocol Option”. The chosen protocol will be recorded in
the user’s PC and used for the next connection. If the network environment is
changed or users want to let the web browser automatically detect the protocol,
select UDP manually and click Save to change the setting and return Home to
reconnect with the new setting.
Options:
UDP Protocol - Offers the highest image and video quality.However,
packet losses will diminish image quality when bandwidth becomes
restricted.
TCP Protocol - Packet loss is less likely to occur compared to UDP
when bandwidth is restricted.
HTTP Protocol - If the network is protected by a firewall and it opens
HTTP port (80) only, HTTP protocol must be selected. In this mode,
audio is disabled and only video can be viewed.
