Multicast
When images from a single camera need to be delivered to multiple PCs,
multicast (RFC 2236) is used. A switch receives an image data stream
from a camera and distributes it to multiple destinations in this mode.
Since a GigE camera always needs a single controlling application, there
will be only one master application. The controlling master application
has to open a camera in multicast mode (IP 232.x.x.x for local multicast
groups) in order to allow other applications to connect to the same image
data stream. Other applications will become listeners to an existing image
data stream. They do not have control access to the camera; however,
potential packet resend requests will be served in the same manner as for
the controlling application.

XML Files
According to the GigE Vision standard a GigE camera provides an XML
file that defines the camera’s capabilities and current settings.
The XML file can be processed by software like SVCapture allowing
displaying and saving it to disk. Settings can also be saved and restored
on the Camera internal EEPROM.
