Applying configurations

To apply configurations, the following steps are necessary:

• The camera must be connected to the data transmission network designated for the service

• DHCP server IP address pools must be configured (see «DHCP subnet groups»)

• The VMS has the camera data available, including:

  • Camera MAC address

  • serial_number

Applying configurations is done using the reservation method.

Algorithm for applying configurations:

• The VMS communicates with the camera via the ONVIF protocol

• The VMS retrieves camera data, including:

  • vendor

  • model

• A configuration for the camera is selected for application. Configurations of the following types are chosen:

  • 'OSD_Time'

  • 'OSD_Text'

  • 'VideoEncoder_Second'

  • 'VideoEncoder_First'

  • 'NTP'

  • Camera model

  • Camera manufacturer

• Applying configurations

The algorithm for applying configurations for a replaced camera follows the same steps as the algorithm for applying configurations for a new camera.
