f. Password : Enter Grandstream IP camera’s password (Default is admin)

Example 1: Adding Grandstream IP camera using RTSP

1- Preparing the IP camera
a. Login to your IP c amera web interface.
http://<IP_address_of_your_camera> (Login : admin ; Password : admin (by default))
b. Under “Video & Audio” adjust your settings for Primary and/or secondary stream.
In this example, we will use H.264 ( MJPEG can also be used, following sa m e s teps)
