You configure the settings of the Cloud Playback role from the Roles view of the System task in Security Center Config Tool.

Cloud Playback - Configuration tab

Click the Configuration tab to change the default settings for this role.

RTSP port
Port used by the Cloud Playback role to listen for incoming Real Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP) requests.
IMPORTANT: All RTSP ports on the same server must be unique. If Cloud Playback is hosted on the same server as another role listening for RTSP requests, including Archiver, Auxiliary Archiver, Media Gateway, Media Router, and redirector agents, ensure that each role listens on a different port.
Local UDP port range
Ports used to stream live video from cloud-connected appliances and cameras to the Cloud Playback role. The number of ports in this range should align with the expected number of simultaneous streams. UDP ports 12001-12500 are used by default.
IMPORTANT: Firewall configuration is not required for these ports because the video is streamed using Web Real-Time Communication (WebRTC). This port range must not be used elsewhere in Security Center, or by other applications.

Cloud Playback - Resources tab

Click the Resources tab to configure the server and failover servers assigned to this role. The Cloud Playback role does not require a database.
