Hi, dear!
VCN has two working modes: VMU and MPU. Today I will share them with you.
The VCN3010 and VCN3020 can operate in Video Management Unit (VMU) or Media Process Units (MPU) mode based on application scenarios.
In VMU mode, the VCN provides the following functions:
Functions as the master server and connects to upper- and lower-level domains or external domains to construct a multi-level and multi-domain network. For domain A in the following networking diagram, the master server must be the VMU.
Manages MPUs and performs service configuration and control in the local domain.
Forwards media streams from external domains.
In MPU mode, there are three forms of MPUs:
Video and image storage
Video and image backup
Pure forwarding
When using video and image storage MPUs, the VCN:
Connects to upper-level domains (the VCN can function only as the bottom-level domain in a multi-level domain network) or external domains to construct a multi-level and multi-domain network.
Selects one MPU to manage other MPUs when there are no more than 16 MPUs in the domain.
Connects to cameras.
Forwards media streams.
Supports recording storage, playback, and download.
Stores snapshots taken by checkpoint cameras and passing vehicle data.
Allows users to view and download snapshots taken by checkpoints.
When using video and image backup MPUs, the VCN:
Supports playback and download of recordings.
Backs up recordings.
Backs up images captured by checkpoint cameras.
Allows users to view and download snapshots taken by checkpoints.
When using pure forwarding MPUs, the VCN:
Connects to upper-level domains (the VCN can function only as the bottom-level domain in a multi-level domain network) or external domains to construct a multi-level and multi-domain network.
Selects one MPU to manage other MPUs when there are no more than 16 MPUs in the domain.
Connects to cameras.
Forwards media streams.
Best wishes!
