Name Description
Live multicast
The system supports multicast of live streams from the recording
server to XProtect Smart Client. To enable multicast of live streams
from the selected camera, select the check box.
You must also configure multicasting for the recording server. See
About multicasting (on page 71).
If multicast streams do not work, for example due to restrictions on
the network or on individual clients, the system reverts to unicast.
