The following transport types can use the `maxOverheadBandwidth` field: `SRTCaller`, `SRTListener`. This field cannot be modified, only set during creation.
- `passPhrase` (string, optional, default: ) — Password phrase for the transport, if the transport type supports it. The following transport types can use the `passPhrase` field: `SRTCaller`, `SRTListener`.
- `password` (string, optional) — Password for HLS pull authentication. For sources, this field can be updated via PATCH when the transport type is `HLSPullInput`. For all other transport types, it can only be set during creation.
- `port` (integer, optional, default: 5000) — Port for the transport, if the transport type supports it. The following transport types need the `port` field: `SRTListener`. This field cannot be modified, only set during creation.
- `streamId` (string, optional, default: ) — The SRT stream ID sent by the caller during the SRT handshake. Used by the listener to identify or route the stream. Optional. The following transport types can use the `streamId` field: `SRTCaller`. This field cannot be modified, only set during creation.

The following transport types need the `url` field: `SRTCaller`, `UDP`, `SDI`, `HLSPullInput`, `RTMPPushOutput`. For sources, this field can be updated via PATCH when the transport type is `SRTCaller` or `HLSPullInput`. For all other transport types, and for destinations, it can only be set during creation.
- `user` (string, optional) — Username for HLS pull authentication. For sources, this field can be updated via PATCH when the transport type is `HLSPullInput`. For all other transport types, it can only be set during creation.
- `urls` (list of string, optional, deprecated) — DEPRECATED: Use `url` instead. This is provided for backwards compatibility and will be removed in a future release. If `urls` is used, only the first URL will be considered. If both `url` and `urls` are provided, `url` takes precedence.

### TransportStatusJsonFragment

- `urls` (list of string, optional) — The URLs configured or allocated/discovered for the transport. Where the `spec.transport.url` field is supported by the transport `type` (e.g. an SRTCaller), the `urls` field will contain that data. Where the system automatically allocates/discovers one or more URLs (e.g. an SRTListener), the `urls` field will contain that data.

### IpResourceJsonFragment

- `type` (enum, required) — Type of IP resource reservation: - `External` means reserve a public IP address, - `Internal` means reserve an internal IP address (please contact MediaKind personnel for usage), and - `None` means don't try to reserve an IP resource. Transports between on-prem devices don't need to explicitly reserve an IP address.
  - Allowed values: `None`, `External`, `Internal`
