Software Structure

Application protocol sub-system

It is used to deal with various application protocols. For example, SIP and RTSP in IPTV system. It is mainly used to shield protocol units against processing of lower layer units. It controls data management and resource management. The operation and maintenance sub-system provides external operation and maintenance interfaces.

Protocol Sub-system

RTSP Module Functions

VOD content redirection.

If the VOD content is not in the local ZXUSS VS8000C, RTSP starts MLSS searching operation, and returns the t t hi ti d t th search result to STB. If the VOD content is in the adjacent ZXUSS VS8000C, RTSP transmits the RTSP signals to the adjacent ZXUSS VS8000C while receiving the STB request, and g q keep the long time connection with the adjacent ZXUSS VS8000C.
