Enabling and Disabling Services
For security purposes, an administrator may need to stop one or more services from accessing Kraken. From the Services page, you can enable and disable network or input capture services, including SDI (DeckLink) Capture, GigE Capture, NDI Capture, ST2110 Capture, Analog (V4L2) Capture, RTSP and SSH.
You can also select which network interfaces allow access to the Kraken Web and API interface in a multi-NIC system. This enables separation of streaming and management interfaces on Kraken.
Note
Some services require a valid Kraken license to enable control of the desired Kraken service.
To enable or disable services:
On the Administration page, click Settings on the navigation bar and Services on the sidebar.
The Services page opens displaying the current status of network services (as shown in the following example).Note
