respectively:
MPEG over GigE
MPEG over QAM
MPEG over various transports/media

CAUTION In the RTSP system, the ERM (Edge Resource Manager) is the complete manager of the
edge device; RTSP does not split the creation of shell sessions and binding of sessions
between two separate controllers (as is the case in RPC).
