Based on the Internet, such as video surveillance methods, the monitoring nodes, the nodes customer service nodes of these three types of nodes based on the existing Internet component video surveillance network, which is a joint monitoring with the video network devices, the digital video signal compression and coding, through the Internet and video data will be sent directly to customers node; customers nodes is a function of a network terminal equipment, directly through network access control node from the video surveillance data show that after the video decoder; service node is a public IP address with the network equipment to assist customers nodes and monitoring network nodes to establish direct links, so as to achieve control nodes directly with the client node data exchange. This invention does away with the existing network video monitoring system in the video server performance bottlenecks, a client node and control nodes, and so on (peer to peer) direct data exchange program, which completely resolve the existing video surveillance technology can not solve the contradiction.
