The problem is your server (i.e., network camera).  Each instance of the camera is sending its stream to the same UDP port (5006 in this case).  Therefore, the proxy server receives both streams on the same UDP port, and can't distinguish them.

Your server (i.e., network camera) is unusual in that it includes a specific IP destination address and UDP port (5006) in the SDP description that it returns in response to "DESCRIBE".  It is more common (for unicast streams like this) for the UDP port number (and IP destination address) in the SDP description to be set to 0 (and 0.0.0.0).  The subsequent "SETUP" command (and response) will then be used to set the specific IP destination address and port for the stream.

In summary: You need to fix (or replace) your network cameras.
