Terminating IPCAST Channels| Call Recording Reference

Terminating(active) IPCAST channel configuration - Initial steps

Terminating(active) recording: When recorded media streams are sent by recorded device directly to the recorder.
Passive recording: When recorded media streams are retrieved from the network traffic by monitoring the Mirror Port on the network switch.

Terminating IPCAST software package configured in config hw ipcast mode.

Following steps assumed to be completed, prior to the configuration described in this section:

VSLogger server software installed
ipcast hardware was enabled and a number of devices (channels) was set. Refer to config hw ipcast- Terminating IPCAST

How to use CLI Tool - refer to CLI Tool Overview

Attention!!: most of the corresponding configuration functionality is also available within Versadial VSLogger Monitor graphical interface. Select setup View Setup View and the corresponding section (General, Storage, Channels, etc..).

Terminating(active) IPCAST (hw ipcast) channels

If hw ipcast was enabled in the system then after reload Administrator can expect channel list similar to following.

cli>(config)
->channel list
channels

.....
17 IPCAST_CH 1 ipcast n
18 IPCAST_CH 2 ipcast n
19 IPCAST_CH 3 ipcast n
20 IPCAST_CH 4 ipcast n
.....
cli>(config)

Open Individual channel in configuration mode.

cli>(config)
->channel 17
cli>(config-ch_17)

Display current channel setting.
