4. Camera Discovery

Camera discovery is the foundation of any ONVIF management system. WINK ONVIF Studio provides multiple discovery methods to ensure you can find all cameras on your network, regardless of their configuration or network topology.

4.1 Automatic Discovery

Standard WS-Discovery

The primary discovery method uses the ONVIF WS-Discovery protocol:

  1. Click "Discover" Button: Initiates the discovery process
  2. Multicast Probe: Sends discovery packets to 239.255.255.250:3702
  3. Camera Response: ONVIF-compliant cameras respond with their information
  4. Results Display: Found cameras appear in the camera list

Discovery Process Log

[10:23:45] Starting WS-Discovery on interface 192.168.1.50
[10:23:45] Sending multicast probe to 239.255.255.250:3702
[10:23:46] Received response from 192.168.1.100
[10:23:46] Camera identified: AXIS P3245-LV
[10:23:46] Received response from 192.168.1.101
[10:23:46] Camera identified: Bosch FLEXIDOME IP 7000
[10:23:50] Discovery timeout reached
[10:23:50] Discovery complete: Found 2 cameras

Discovery Options

Network Interface Selection

Choose which network adapter to use for discovery. Essential for systems with multiple network connections.

Discovery Timeout

Adjust how long to wait for camera responses. Default is 10 seconds, but may need adjustment for larger networks.

Discovery Scope

Limit discovery to specific network segments or expand to include all accessible networks.

4.2 Manual Discovery Methods

Understanding ONVIF Discovery

Click the "Understanding ONVIF Discovery" button to access comprehensive discovery documentation:

ONVIF Discovery Help

Figure 9: ONVIF Discovery Help Window

This help system covers:

Extensive Scan

The Extensive Scan performs a comprehensive search of your network:

Warning: Extensive Scan can take 15-20 minutes for a /24 network. Plan accordingly and avoid running during production hours.

How Extensive Scan Works

  1. IP Range Detection: Automatically determines your subnet
  2. Sequential Scanning: Tests every IP address (e.g., 192.168.1.1-254)
  3. Multi-Port Testing: Checks common ONVIF ports:
  4. Progress Display: Shows current IP being tested

Manual Prefix Scan

For targeted discovery of specific network ranges:

Manual Prefix Scan

Figure 10: Manual Prefix Scan Dialog

Using Manual Prefix Scan

  1. Click "Manual Prefix Scan"
  2. Enter Network Ranges: 
    192.168.1.0/24
10.0.0.0/24
172.16.50.0/24
  3. Configure Options:
  4. Start Scan: Monitor progress in real-time

Manual Camera Addition

For cameras that cannot be discovered automatically:

  1. Click "Add Camera" Button
  2. Enter Camera Information:
    Field Description Example
    Name Friendly name for identification Front Door Camera
    IP Address Camera's network address 192.168.1.200
    Port ONVIF service port 8080
    Username Administrator username admin
    Password Administrator password ********
  3. Test Connection: Verify camera is accessible
  4. Save: Add to camera list

4.3 Understanding ONVIF Discovery

Network Requirements

For successful discovery, ensure:

Common Discovery Issues

Tip: If automatic discovery fails, try these steps in order:
  1. Disable firewall temporarily
  2. Use Extensive Scan
  3. Try Manual Prefix Scan with specific ranges
  4. Add cameras manually

5. Connecting to Cameras

5.1 Authentication Methods

WINK ONVIF Studio supports all standard ONVIF authentication methods, automatically detecting and using the appropriate method for each camera.

Supported Authentication Types

WS-Security (WSSE)

The most secure ONVIF authentication method using username tokens with digest passwords and timestamps. Prevents replay attacks and password sniffing.

HTTP Digest Authentication

Standard HTTP authentication using MD5 hashing. Widely supported by older cameras and provides reasonable security.

HTTP Basic Authentication

Simple username/password authentication. Less secure but sometimes required for legacy devices. Credentials sent in Base64 encoding.

Authentication Process

WINK ONVIF Studio uses an intelligent authentication system:

  1. Initial Probe: Test connection without authentication
  2. Method Detection: Analyze response to determine required authentication
  3. Sequential Testing: Try methods in order of security preference
  4. Success Caching: Remember successful method for future connections

Authentication Sequence

Connection attempt to 192.168.1.100:80
├── Try SOAP 1.2 + WSSE ──────► Success ✓
├── Try SOAP 1.2 + Digest ────► (Skipped)
├── Try SOAP 1.2 + Basic ─────► (Skipped)
├── Try SOAP 1.1 + WSSE ──────► (Skipped)
└── Connection established with SOAP 1.2 + WSSE

5.2 Connection Process
