Set Network Parameters

You can set parameters for registering the platform without Remote Site Management module (or Remote Site) to the Central System, and set access mode for encoding and decoding devices.

1. In the top left corner of the Home page, select > Video > Video Settings > Network.
2. Set network parameters.

   Register to Central System

   Switch on Register to Central System and enter the IP address and port No. of Central System to allow the system without Remote Site Management module (as we called Remote Site) to be registered to the Central System. Central System is the system that has Remote Site Management module and can group multiple Remote Sites together to form a larger-scale union. The purpose of grouping Central System and Remote Sites is to allow Central System's users to view and manage resources belonging to multiple Remote Sites simultaneously as if they were on the same system.

   Note:

   • Before registering to the Central System, make sure you have enabled the Central System to receive the site registration. Refer to the parameter Receive Site Registration for details.

   • Registering to Central System is only available for the system without Remote Site Management module.

   • Open Service Manager (installed on the PC running central system's SYS service), and click System Management Service if you need to view or edit the Central System's port.

   Receive Site Registration

   Check the Receive Site Registration to allow the system with Remote Site Management module (or Central System) to receive the registration from Remote Sites. Remote Site is the system that does not have Remote Site Management module and can register to Central System to form a larger-scale union. The purpose of joining Central System and Remote Sites is to allow Central System's users to view and manage resources belonging to multiple Remote Sites simultaneously as if they were on the same system.

   Note:

   • If a remote site needs to register to the Central System, it should open the Remote Site's Web Client and enter Register to Central System to configure the Central System's parameters. See Set Network Parameters for details.

   • Allowing remote site registration is only available for the system with Remote Site Management module.

   Device Access Mode

   Set the device access mode to Automatically Judge or Proxy mode to define how the system accesses all the added encoding devices and decoding devices.

   Automatically Judge

   The system will automatically judge the condition of network connection and then set the device access mode accordingly as accessing directly or accessing via Streaming Gateway and Management Service.

   Proxy

   The system will access the device via Streaming Gateway and Management Service. It is less effective and less efficient than accessing directly.

   Note:

   The two parameters Register to Central System and Receive Site Registration are not available at the same time.
