The “Main > IP” screen (Figure 5.9) is a user-configurable screen where the Destination IP, Encapsulation, Destination
Port, Source Port, Time to Live and Stuffing parameters are configured.
Figure 5.9 – “IP” Screen
IP OUTPUT CONFIG:
Destination IP:
allows user to assign the IP address of the equipment to which the IP output is streamed to.
Encapsulation:
from the two available options (RTP & UDP) must select the one that matches the protocol used by
the receiving equipment.
Destination Port:
must enter the IP Port of the receiving equipment. The factory default value is 50000. The range is
1 to 65535.
Source Port:
must enter the IP Port of the equipment that the input IP source is streamed from. The factory default
value is 50000. The range is 1 to 65535.
NOTE:
Port number is recommended to be from 49152 to 65535. Reason: Port 1-1023 and 1024-49151
are the Reserved Ports and the Registered Ports, respectively.
Time to Live:
is an upper limit on the time that an IP packet can exist in an IP network. The value is set by the sender
of the packet, and reduced by every host on the route to packet’s final destination. If the Time to Live reaches zero
before the packet arrives at its final destination, then the packet is discarded. The purpose of this field is to avoid an
undeliverable packet from circulating on an IP network perpetually. The range is 1 to 255. Factory default value is 128.
Stuffing:
Null packets are inserted to ensure that the TS bitrate assigned in 2 of Section 5.5 remains constant. Possible
options are Enable and Disable. It is advisable to disable stuffing when only IP output is used to help reduce the traffic
on the network.

The Destination IP Address must be present before streaming occurs, otherwise the session is aborted.
For Multicast applications, the IP address must be in the range of 224.0.0.0 through 239.255.255.255. For
Unicast applications, the IP address must be outside the range mentioned above.
