Routing of full motion video (FMV) streams in one-way transfer systems using out-of-band routing tables

A computer-implemented method for routing video streams in a one-way transfer (OWT) system, the method comprising:

• receiving a new channel command to reserve a channel, of a plurality of channels, for a video stream associated with a unique identifier, the plurality of the channels defining different data paths through the OWT system;
• identifying an unused channel of the plurality of channels;
• reserving the unused channel for the video stream associated with the unique identifier;
• receiving, by a source video broker in a source computing environment, the video stream;
• identifying, by the source video broker, the unique identifier for the video stream based on a source address of the video stream;
• based on the unique identifier, identifying the reserved channel for the video stream;
• and
• transmitting, by the source video broker, the video stream through the OWT system along the reserved channel to a destination video broker in a destination computing environment protected by the OWT system, wherein the source computing environment is a low-trust environment and the destination computing environment is a high-trust computing environment.

A system for routing video streams in a one-way transfer (OWT) system, the system comprising a destination video broker in a destination computing environment protected by the OWT system, the destination video broker comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the destination video broker to perform operations comprising:
• receiving a first video stream on a first predefined channel of the OWT system and a second video stream on a second predefined channel of the OWT system, wherein at least one of the first video stream or the second video stream originated from a source video broker in a source environment, wherein the source computing environment is a low-trust environment and the destination computing environment is a high-trust computing environment;
• determining a first destination address for the first video stream by querying a source routing table with an identifier for the first predefined channel, wherein the source routing table includes entries indicating at least one of unique identifiers or destination addresses associated with reserved channels;
• determining a second destination address for the second video stream by querying the source routing table with an identifier for the second predefined channel;
• transmitting the first video stream to a first destination device having the first destination address;
• and
• transmitting the second video stream to a second destination device having the second destination address.
