GS108PEv3 setting up for IP cameras

I am using this POE to power (2) PTZ Optics box cameras and I am seeing some glitching in my broadcast stream.I have not done anything outside of plugging it in and running it.  Do I need to update the firmware?  How do I do that? Should I do some special configuration for the ports that the cameras are plugged into?  The cameras are connected by cat(6) ethernet cables and I have excess cable, should I address this?

    Somewhat vague I'm afraid.

     

    Exact model?

    Exact use case?

    Are you trying to set-up an NDI environment?
    Is IGMP Snooping configured for your network (the VLAN) carrying the camera traffic, and enabled?

      My exact model is GS108PEv3

      It is used to bring the video feed from two Zcam cameras into a laptop for live streaming church services.

      I am not sure of NDI vs SDI differences

      I have never set up VLAN, I am not aware of its use and how it will help with my setup.  We are a local church that streams our worship services to Youtube via OBS studios

        Was more behind the exact camera type and details.
