VPort 2310 User’s Manual System Configuration
4-7
NOTE
Whenever the system reboots, a system log will be sent out via email or FTP to show the login
status of VPort. The system log will be sent to the Sender email address if the SMTP server
settings are correct. To send the system log via FTP, the SMTP server should be erased since the
E-mail system is used by default to transmit the system log.
NOTE
In either e-mail or FTP, the 1
st
server information should be entered first. If the 1
st
server is not
set, the related FTP or email will be cancelled. Note that it may take time to connect to the 2
nd
server after the first one fails, and it may affect some applications when conditions occur too
often.
HTTP
For security or network integration, administrators can hide the server from the general HTTP
port by changing the default HTTP port of 80 to a different port number. These ports of Control
Channel Port, Audio Channel Port, and Video Channel Port which are used in media
transmission can also be changed. Administrators should have enough network knowledge to
change the default port.
NOTE
If the video server is behind NAT, port mapping is necessary for connections outside NAT.
Totally, 4 port mappings need to be set in the NAT router to enable full video and audio
streaming by video server: HTTP port, control channel port, video channel port, and audio
channel port.
Audio Control
There are 2 settings for audio controlled by the administrator.
1. □ Improve audio quality in a low bandwidth environment
If the VPort works in a variable or low bandwidth (compared with video bandwidth)
environment, the client side will receive poor media quality. To improve the situation,
administrator can check the Improve audio quality in low bandwidth environment item to
improve the audio quality, but the video delay will be longer, resulting in poor “real-time”
quality. If the network performance is poor, users can select the UDP protocol as the
communication protocol in client settings.
2. □ Mute
The administrator can disable audio streaming by checking the Mute box. Users connected to
the VPort will only receive video. Once Mute is checked, LED2 for CONNECT status will
blink once about every 2 seconds, which is obviously slower than the normal condition with
both video and audio streaming.
Save the modification
After all necessary modifications are made, click on Save to store the modifications. A warning
message will appear for confirmation. After clicking on OK, the VPort will automatically restart.
If the Reset network at next boot option is checked, perform the software installation again.
Otherwise, the VPort will boot up automatically using the new configuration settings.
