number of channels configured). The number of ports used depends on

how many channels you have with RTSPstreaming enabled. See Stream

content using HTTP, HTTPS or RTSP. Note that client video players choose

whether they are using RTSP/TCP, RTSP/HTTP orRTSP/UDP.

Ports 554 and 555 are also used for internal communications. If

streaming is disabled, these ports remain open but refuse all external

connection requests.

UDP ports (two for audio and two for video). The port range is dependent

on theOS of the client video player and can change with updates to that

OS.
