Some devices, for example ONVIF or including those that are connected via the ONVIF protocol and the Hikvision IP devicesdevice, connect to Axxon PSIM via the HTTP protocol and use HTTP this protocol to transmit settings, PTZ control, etc.and so on, but at the same time they transmit video, sound, and metadata via the RTSP protocol. In this case, by default, the RTSP port from which the device transmits certain data is reported by the IP device itself in response to an the HTTP request from Axxon PSIM. Please For information about the necessity of using the RTSP port, refer to the manufacturer's documentation to find out if RTSP port is requireddocumentation of the IP device vendor.
However, if the IP device is behind NAT, the RTSP port returned by the device may not be correct if the IP device is behind NAT.
In this case, after creating you create and configuring configure the Video capture device object (see Configuring video acquisition from IP devices or Connecting devices via the ONVIF protocol), you must specify the RTSP port from which which Axxon PSIM should must request data in the RTSP field on the settings panel of the created object:

For example, there is an the ONVIF device is on the local network having an IP address of and has the 192.168.1.53 IP address, an the 80 HTTP port of 80, and an the 554 RTSP port of 554. At the same time, the device is brought into to the global network through NAT, and and Axxon PSIM connects to the device using IP address the 85.172.174.48 IP address, 8084 HTTP port 8084 , and 5554 RTSP port 5554. |
