Setup FTP Pushed Video
A network camera has its own IP address. It is connected to a network and has a
built-in Web server, FTP server, FTP client, e-mail client, alarm management,
programmability, and much more. A network camera operates as an independent
server on a network and can be placed wherever there is an IP network connection.
The File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a network protocol for data transmission via
TCP/IP. It primarily is used to transmit files from a server to a client (download) or
from a client to a server (upload).
1. FTP Client — FTP Server Event-based Connection
Network cameras or video encoders (video servers) can use FTP to transmit JPEG
images or MPEG-4 video sequences to an FTP server for archiving purposes. In such a case, the network
camera acts as an FTP client and establishes an event-based connection to the FTP server. It then transmits
multiple JPEG images to the server and stores them to a specific directory using different file names. The
DETEXI NVR has its own FTP server and can receive these images and incorporate them into the Archive
just like any streamed recording.
