5.2 How to pull a BRTP stream from an Barix Instreamer
For applications where an audio stream has to be sent
over the Internet the Barix Instreamer can be used as an
audio encoder. “BRTP” stands for Barix RTP and is
similar to the RTP protocol but modified so that listening
to streams is possible even behind a firewall or NAT.
Only the firewall on the Instreamer side has to be
configured to allow the UDP port access from outside. In
this example we will use port 4040 but you are not
restricted to this port number.
Instreamer Configuration
STEP 1
Configure your Instreamer to “BRTP 0.0.0.0 : 4040” in
the first “stream to” entry (only the first supports BRTP)
in the Streaming configuration tab.
STEP 2
Configure your Router/Modem/Firewall to pass UDP
port 4040 from outside to the IP of your Instreamer.
STEP 3
Check in your Router what public IP address you have or
configure “Dynamic DNS” if you plan to use a URL name
instead of an IP number.
Exstreamer Configuration
STEP 1
Open your Web Browser
STEP 2
Enter the IP address of the Exstreamer (as announced
over the audio outputs by SonicIP) and press Enter.
Example: 192.168.0.12
STEP 3
Look at the section NETWORK SETTINGS.
If the IP Address is set to 0.0.0.0 (Automatic discovery)
you can proceed to step 6 further below.
STEP 4
Enter the Gateway IP address. Example: 192.168.0.1
STEP 5
Enter the primary DNS IP address. Example: 192.168.0.1
STEP 6
Scroll to the section STREAMING SETTINGS. In the “1.
URL” field enter the following (replace the IP by the
current public IP of the Router on the Instreamer side):
40
