NMOS 4 registry is based on 2 steps: Finding the registry server and registering (There is also P2P mode - not relevant for us).
The NMOS client detects the registration server via mDns service that can wait for the server to advertise or send its own query. After detecting the server, it uses HTTP protocol (on registry defined port) where all traffic is generated by the MCM.
The MCM registers the “NODE” - per MCM server, “DEVICE” per each channel and each encoder, “SENDER” per each encoder TX - one per video and one per audio, “RECEIVER” per channel element - one per video, 8 for audio, 4 for metadata (ANC).
NMOS 5 - control: Configure active receivers/senders.
