RTSP Streaming
Authentication: Depending on your network security requirements, the Network Camera provides
three types of security settings for streaming via RTSP protocol: disable, basic and digest� If basic
authentication is selected, the password is sent in plain text format; there can be potential risks of being
intercepted� If digest authentication is selected, user credentials are encrypted in MD5 algorithm and thus
provide better protection against unauthorized accesses�
The accessibility of the RTSP streaming for the three authentication modes are listed in the following
table:
O indicates that the authentication mode is supported by the RTSP player�
X indicates that the authentication mode is NOT supported by the RTSP player.
Access name for stream 1 / Access name for stream 2: The access name is used to differentiate the
streaming source� When using a RTSP player to access the Network Camera, and the video mode is set
to MPEG-4, use the following RTSP URL command to request a transmission of streaming data�
rtsp://:/
For example, when the access name for stream 1 is set to live�sdp:
1� Launch a RTSP player�
2. Choose File > Open URL. An URL dialog box will pop up.
3� Type the URL command in the text box�
For example:
rtsp://192.168.5.129:554/live.sdp
