<a name="setup-uss-rtp-push"></a>

You must make sure that the upstream system pushes content to the correct locations in MediaLive.

**To set up for a standard channel**

Follow this procedure if the MediaLive channel is a [standard channel](plan-redundancy.md).

1. Provide the operator with this information:
   + The two endpoints (URLs) that MediaLive generated when you created the RTP input. These endpoints are the addresses in the blue boxes in [the diagram after this procedure](setup-result-rtp-push.md). The URLs include port 5000. For example: 

     `198.51.100.99:5000`

     `192.0.2.18:5000`

1. Make sure that the operator sets up properly for a standard channel. They must:
   + Deliver two sources that are identical in terms of video resolution and bitrate.
   + Make sure that the sources appear on the agreed IP addresses on the public network. For example:
     + For one source: `203.0.113.19, 203.0.113.58, 203.0.113.25`
     + For the other source: `198.51.100.19, 198.51.100.59, 198.51.100.21`

     You used these addresses when you created the input security group. If the upstream system doesn't use these addresses, MediaLive will refuse the push.
   + Push to the correct URLs on MediaLive. For example, they must push to:

     `198.51.100.99:5000`

     `192.0.2.18:5000`
   + Send over RTP, not UDP. The UDP protocol is not supported for an input into MediaLive.

**To set up for a single-pipeline channel**

Follow this procedure if the MediaLive channel is a [single-pipeline channel](plan-redundancy.md).

1. Provide the operator with this information:
   + Only the first of the two endpoints (URLs) that MediaLive generated when you created the RTP input. This endpoint is one of the addresses in the blue boxes in [the diagram after this procedure](setup-result-rtp-push.md). The URL includes port 5000. For example: 

     `198.51.100.99:5000`

1. Make sure that the operator sets up properly for a single-pipeline channel. They must:
   + Make sure that the source appears on the agreed IP addresses on the public network. For example:

     `203.0.113.19, 203.0.113.58, 203.0.113.25`

     You used these addresses when you created the input security group. If the upstream system doesn't use these addresses, MediaLive will refuse the push.

     `198.51.100.99:5000`
