Before you can request live and playback video and receive raw video streams using the RTSP protocol, you must first create at least one Media Gateway role in your system with Config Tool.

Before you begin

Ensure that the Number of Media Gateway RTSP streams option in your Security Center license supports at least one stream.

What you should know

A Media Gateway role is created by default if your Security Center license supports mobile devices or web connections (Number of mobile and web connections > 0).

Procedure

  1. From the Config Tool homepage, open the Video task and click the Roles and units view.
  2. At the bottom of the page, click beside Video unit, and then click Media Gateway.
  3. On the Specific info page, select the Server to host the role on, and then click Next.
    This step is skipped if you have only one server in your system.
  4. On the Basic information page, enter a name and description for the role.
  5. If there is a Partition field, select the partition this role is a member of.
    Partitions determine which Security Center users have access to this entity. Only users who have been granted access to the partition can see this role.
  6. Click Next > Create > Close.
    A new Media Gateway role () is created.
