VideoEdge NVMS Summary

The VideoEdge Network Video Management System is a scalable enterprise IP video surveillance

solution. It is designed as an open platform solution supporting many third party hardware, storage, video

devices, and client platforms. The Network Video Recorder manages the IP encoder and cameras

devices, records the video onto its configured storage devices, and provides clients with secure access to

live and recorded video. Users can use a thin-client (web browser) or rich-client (application software) to

administer the NVR and/or view the video. With built-in NVR virtualization, our application software allows

users to manage many NVRs and their edge devices as a single logical system. There is support for

clients to easily monitor video from custom multi-layer and multi-tier maps created by our application

software. VideoEdge also supports a video wall that can enable one or more clients to manage any large

number of standard Windows client PC’s with single or dual monitor configurations running our virtual

matrix video wall software that can span across the network. So whether you have traditional analog

cameras or newer IP and megapixel cameras, the VideoEdge NVR and its suite of management software

and various hardware products provide you with the necessary components to configure an IP video

solution that meets your needs. Below is the list of the software and hardware products that are available

from American Dynamics:

Network Infrastructure

The VideoEdge Network Video Management System is designed to easily integrate into standard TCP/IP

network environments. As a pure IP-based solution, the network infrastructure will directly impact the

overall performance of the system.

Network Equipment

American Dynamics does not endorse one brand over another as VideoEdge is designed to work with

standard Ethernet equipment. Although there is a wide range of models to choose from, it is important to

choose the correct hardware to ensure sustained network bandwidth, reliability for maximum uptime, and

advanced port management functions which are critical for any IP video deployment. Therefore, American

Dynamics recommends selecting a quality model that meets or exceeds your network requirements due to

the high network bandwidth utilization. Most edge devices support POE today and distances beyond the

100 meters may be needed, therefore the recommended configuration for most installations includes:

Gigabit Ethernet ports

POE ports

High Speed Uplink ports

Layer 3 Managed

Category 6 Ethernet cables

Network Protocols

The VideoEdge NVMS utilizes unicast transmission today for communication between edge devices and NVR as well

as between NVR and clients. Each IP camera and encoder device supports a variety of protocols, some of which are

utilized by the NVR to receive video, audio and/or data streams. The client applications can use non-encrypted or

encrypted mode for NVR discovery and communication. The ports associated with these which must be open on the

network firewall include:

Port 7 NVR Discovery

Port 1099 NVR Discovery

Port 80 NVR Communication

Port 443 NVR Communication

Ports 5554 through 5681 Additional Ports for ACC and MPEG4 Video

Understanding the VideoEdge NVMS Network

Topology

The VideoEdge NVMS is designed as a scalable solution to support the needs of various resolution,

compressions, and real-time video monitoring in a distributed and centralized architectures. Careful

planning and deployment will be required to ensure that the highest level of performance can be achieved

based on the network infrastructure. VideoEdge NVMS can utilize multiple network segments over VLANs

to provide improved network security and bandwidth utilization.

Distributed versus Centralized Architectures

There are many advantages and disadvantages surrounding a distributed or centralized architecture, each

having different dependencies. To maximize the flexibility of the VideoEdge NVMS, it has been designed

as a distributed solution with ability to support single site login.

Example of Standard Distributed Architecture and Optional Centralized Single-Site Login Architecture

VideoEdge NVMS Design Guide

VideoEdge NVMS Network Channels

The VideoEdge NVMS network is designed to utilize the following network channels:

LAN1: This network VLAN segment is intended for use as the public network where the clients

communicate with the VideoEdge NVR Servers. All video streams access the main

corporate network to send live and recorded video to each individual client machine. It is

also used as the management port.

In the event that any IP encoders and/or IP cameras are not accessible via LAN2 (e.g.

remote devices accessible over the internet), this network segment will be used to stream

the video to the VideoEdge NVR.

LAN2: This network VLAN segment is intended for use as the private camera network where the

VideoEdge NVR Servers communicate with IP encoders and/or IP cameras to receive

video for recording and viewing. This is where all video streams

LAN3: This network VLAN segment is intended for use as the private storage network where

the VideoEdge NVR Servers communicate with optional iSCSI RAID storage devices to

record and retrieve video to an IP SAN.

Fibre: In place of the 3rd NIC, an optional Fibre Channel HBA can be installed in the VideoEdge

NVR Servers for direct connectivity to Fibre RAID Storage devices to record and retrieve

video.

It is recommended that high quality layer 3 switches are used whenever possible to ensure a more

efficiently designed infrastructure where priorities for video traffic can be configured as needed along with

VLAN configurations.
