The RSE6500 has three network ports (GE0, GE1, and FE ports) and one serial port. The GE0 port supports the gigabit network port, which is the main service network port. Currently, the network port is used for web access, code stream, and signaling. The GE1 port supports gigabit network ports, which can be used for interconnection with external storage devices. The FE port supports 100 Mbit/s network ports. It is a maintenance network port and is not generally used. The serial port can be controlled by the PC.
PS: It is recommended that the GE0 port be connected to a gigabit switch. The test result shows that the maximum throughput of a single network port is about 800Mb.
If the RSE is deployed in a private network and public network users want to watch live or on-demand videos through a browser, it is recommended that the private network address of the RSE be mapped to the public network through NAT so that the public network can access the RSE.
In some offices, the GE0 port is connected to the private network, and the GE1 port is connected to the public network. In this mode, only the GE0 port can be used for the live recording service, and the GE1 port can only be used for web access. In addition, the IP addresses of the GE0 port and GE1 port must belong to different network segments, cannot communicate with each other.
Note: The GE0 and GE1 ports do not back up each other. The RSE and MCU are different. The GE0 and GE1 ports of the MCU back up each other.
[Optical port and electrical port]
The GE0 and GE1 ports correspond to the optical port and electrical port respectively. When the optical port and electrical port are connected to the network, the optical port is used by default. RSE optical ports and electrical ports back up each other. Some sites use optical ports and electrical ports for backup purposes.
The RSE optical port is a gigabit port and does not support the 10GE rate. The switch can use a gigabit switch or a 10GE switch, but the optical module must be a gigabit optical module.
When a 10GE optical interface is connected to a 10GE optical module, the GE rate cannot be negotiated. The GE rate can be negotiated only when the GE optical module is connected. This is a limit on the switch.
