ZEC Adding SRT Client Outputs

The SRT output can be pulled to/from an SRT-enabled device and is configured via Zen Master or Zixi API only. SRT stands for ‘Secure Reliable Transport’ and is an open-source video transport protocol and technology stack. SRT uses secure streams and easy firewall traversal to optimize streaming performance and deliver high-quality video over even the most unreliable networks.

To Create an SRT Client Output:

In the ZEC Outputs page, click . The New Output window is displayed.
Type in the unique identifier for this output in the Output Name.
Select an Input Stream to be made available on this output from the drop-down list.
Select the Show in Matrix check box to display this stream in the Matrix (see ZEC Using the Matrix). Default: Selected.
Select SRT Client.
Enter the Output Parameters (see Output Stream Parameters Table).
If you want to specify Billing Codes to identify and differentiate traffic on a ZEC for billing purposes, select this checkbox (see Output Stream Parameters Table below).
You can decrypt an encrypted stream as it enters the ZEC. To decrypt a stream, select the
Decrypt Stream checkbox and fill in the parameters as describes in the Output Stream Parameter Table below. For more information, see https://zixidocumentation.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/116/pages/4802576390 .
Click OK.
The new SRT Output with its settings is created and now appears on the screen.

Output Stream Parameters Table

Parameter	Description

Parameter	Description
Output Parameters
Host	The destination host for the SRT stream.
Port	Specify the ports to which the stream will be pushed.
Password	If the stream is password protected, enter the password.
Latency	Specify the maximum latency of the stream in milliseconds. Default: 1000
Encryption Type	Specify the type of Encryption (AES 128/192/256).
Bind to IP	Select from the drop-down list the local IP address to be used for this Output, OR select Any to enable any IP to be used.
Billing Codes	Billing codes are used to identify and differentiate traffic on a ZEC for billing purposes. When a billing code is added to a Source or Target, ZEC can track the traffic on that ZEC input or output separately from other inputs and outputs on the same ZEC. Billing codes are created by ZEC personnel on the ZEC Customer Portal for a particular organization.
Billing Code	Enter the billing code that corresponds to this stream. The relevant billing can be obtained from the organization that received the billing code from Zixi.
Billing password	Enter the password that corresponds to this billing code.
Enable Decryption	Select this checkbox to decrypt an encrypted stream.
Decryption type	If the stream has been encrypted, you can decrypt through the output by selecting this checkbox and specifying the type of ecryption that was used. Select Automatic to decrypt a stream that has been encrypted using Automatic encryption. Only if the stream has not been encrypted, select None (default). Important Notice: if the stream has been encrypted you must decrypt it in the output.
Decryption key	If the decryption type includes a key, enter the key to decrypt the stream during output.
