Multicast: Here the initial stream is sent to the
router only, which creates optimal distribution
paths for datagrams sent to a multicast
destination address. Whether one or 300 PCs
are connected to the video stream does not
matter. The bandwidth and load of the local
camera is unaffected. Because of this,
multicast is the preferred choice for broadcast-
type applications.
Status: Enable or disable the multicast
function here.
Access Name: This is the stream URL. It
depends on the profile selected and can
be modified.
Multicast Address: Type in the multicast
server address here.
Video / Audio Port: You can specify the
audio and video ports here, or you can
use the auto value, which should be good for most occasions.
Time to Live: The Time-To-Live value defines how long multicast traffic will
expand across routers. Routers have a TTL threshold assigned and only
datagrams with a TTL greater than the interface's threshold are forwarded.
