AMWA IS-06 NMOS Network Control Specification (Deprecated)
About IS-06
AMWA IS-06 IS DEPRECATED
What does it do?
- IS-06 lets broadcast control applications manage what happens on the network itself
What was the motivation?
- Ethernet switch output ports might only support a limited number of media flows before they start dropping packets
- This is different to what happens in a typical SDI router
- And it means corrupted video and audio
How does it work?
- Provides a “Northbound” API from network fabric’s controller
- Includes topology discovery, flow authorization and assurances of flow bandwidth
IS-06 has been developed by the Advanced Media Workflow Association as part of the Networked Media Open Specifications initiative. See here for an overview of NMOS specifications.
The NMOS Testing Tool creates a simple web service for testing implementations of all NMOS APIs.
