Welcome to the openvivoe wiki!

This is the Open Source implementation of the Video In Vehicles Over Ethernet (VIVOE) norm.

First, to install our project you should take a look to the project's website : http://openwide-ingenierie.github.io/openvivoe/.

This page will explain you how the configuration files work.

First, you need to configure net-snmp for OpenVivoe. Net-SNMP is the library used by VIVOE to implement SNMP, the protocol used to control the streams. SNMPv2 protcol works with a Management Information Base "MIB", which acts as a data base. VIVOE implements its own. Furthermore, Net-SNMP cames with several configuration files. To simplify the configuration we already have wrote all those files. First, create a directory ".snmp" in your home folder and copy the content of the "conf" directory in there.

~$ make $HOME/.snmp
~$ cp -r conf/mibs conf/s* $HOME/.snmp

OpenVivoe uses two configuration, so let take a look at them.

~$ cd conf

~$ ls

You should see to configuration file named vivoe-stream.conf and vivoe-mibs.conf.

To get explanation on vivoe-stream.conf go here !

The configuration file in which you may be the most interesting in is probably the second one. To have information on how to use it, go here!
