How to set up Icecast to broadcast radio to the network?

Good afternoon.
I installed icecast2 on the centos server. I pick up the udp radio stream and broadcast to the right address. But he probably broadcasts further in udp, because by going to the address + the port does not reproduce anything. But it plays in vlc.
In general, maybe someone knows or will share a link how to set up icecast2, so that when you go to the address, for example, white ip: 8000/radio, this radio stream immediately starts playing in the browser.
This is necessary in order to later insert this link into the player and shove it onto the site, like the city's online radio.
Thanks
Here are the icecast settings at the moment.

             it also significantly increases latency between the source
             client and listening client.  For low-latency setups, you

Chapter

<relay>
in the configuration file only applies to relaying a stream from another Icecast server (see documentation ). The source of the stream for Icecast must be an application ( source client ) that sends the stream to
<mount>
your Icecast server at ip.add.re.ss:8000 (in your case, this mount should be /radio). Then users will be able to connect to ip.add.re.ss:8000/radio and hear the sound.
For your case with receiving an audio stream over UDP, this is not good. You need some application that will receive the stream over UDP, and then pass it as source to Icecast's mount point. Considering that there are not so many source programs, I think I'll have to make some kind of crutch like "get an udp stream on VLC, transfer via virtual audio cable to edcast, send from edcast to icecast".
