Enhanced SDK Service: SDK over TLS protocol is used. Communication between the
device and the client software is secured by using TLS (Transport Layer Security)
protocol.
TLS (Transport Layer Security)
The device offers TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2. Enable one or more protocol versions according
to your need.
Smooth Streaming
Note:
Smooth Streaming is available to certain camera models.
Purpose:
When the network is unstable or high quality of video is required, you can enable Smooth
