Manage IAS

IAS offers a web-based user interface that you can use to manage your configurations and view status. Open a browser on the machine you've installed IAS and launch this URL: http://127.0.0.1:11939.

From this page, you can select:

  • Instance configuration. Use this to add and delete encoder listening points. These are IP addresses and listening ports on which IAS should listen for encoders to connect with incoming stream data. You can also review the status of these connections in this table.

  • Stream configuration status. You can view the ingestion status for all streams that are forwarded from IAS to the server.

The notification bar appears if the IAS client has an issue. It also displays generic information that is not specific to a particular IP address or listening point. A message in the notification bar can have either a blue or a red background. A red background indicates that the system will not work until you perform some action. If more than one message is displayed at the same time, the most severe message is shown first.
