How to access Nx Server configuration options

How do I access Nx Server configuration options?

Nx Server has certain options that require a restart in order to apply changes. When Nx Server runs on a Windows system, these parameters are stored in the registry. When Nx Server runs on a Linux system, the mediaserver.conf file is used.

Windows

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Network Optix\Network Optix Media Server

Linux

/opt/networkoptix/mediaserver/etc/mediaserver.conf

Some parameters are shown by default while some parameters are hidden. The parameters that are hidden must be added manually. Afterward, restart Nx Server to apply the changes.

A user can get a description of the parameters that are supported by the current Nx Server version in mediaserver.conf via the following API request:

http://<server_ip>:<server_port>/#/server-documentation

For version 5.0 and prior:

http://<server_ip>:<server_port>/api/settingsDocumentation
