Authorization | Enables authorization |
Type | Default: None - authorization will be defined in the Input and Output streams. In this case you will need to define the password in the Input and the Output streams. Text File – this option manages authorizations in a text file. This option is useful for large OTT operations, as it does not require configuration for every user. The text file contains pairs of stream name and password that are used for the input streams. For the outputs, it contains the stream name, user and password of the viewer. HTTP Server – ZiXi Broadcaster will generate an HTTP request to an external server on every connection. Linux Server – uses the built-in authorization of the operating system. Global Password – a single password that will be used for all access requests. If you select this option, you must define the global password in the Parameter field below. Other override authorization techniques are available. For more information contact ZiXi support. |
