Software Dependencies and Configuration

The camera functionality is represented as an attached client to the AP. The IP address from the camera can be retrieved from the Client report in the ExtremeWireless user interface.

A Port/User specific policy can be assigned to the camera function, such as mapping all camera interactions like video streaming or management to its own network segment or VLAN (Virtual LAN).

The ONVIF compliant camera is discoverable using standard ONVIF/IP camera methods. ONVIF utilizes multicast as the means of advertising and inquiring about device presence. Therefore, in the ExtremeWireless user interface, the default topology of the role associated to the camera port must be adjusted to allow for multicast. In the Edit Topology dialog box, we recommend configuring All Multicast (0.0.0.0/0) in the Group field.
