Appendix A - Installing the DCS-1100/1130 on a Router Without UPnP Appendix A: Installing the DCS-1100/1130 on a Router Without UPnP If you connect your camera to an Internet router that does not support UPnP, you can assign your camera to a DMZ connection on your router. For more details, refer to your router’s User Manual for more details on configuring your camera to use a DMZ connection.
Appendix A - Installing the DCS-1100/1130 on a Router Without UPnP 2) Assign an IP Address and Port for Your Camera • Click on the SETUP tab, and select Network Setup A local IP address is required to configure your camera and to view your camera within your local network. You may use the default camera IP address of 192.168.0.20. If you wish to use a different IP address, be sure that the camera settings correspond to your network settings.
Appendix A - Installing the DCS-1100/1130 on a Router Without UPnP 3) Open the HTTP Port The HTTP port option under Port Detail Settings is used when multiple cameras are being installed behind a single public IP address and will be accessed remotely OR for using a port other than the default port for image viewing. For each additional camera that is installed, you must assign the appropriate Web server port for each camera to enable remote viewing. By default, port 80 (Web server port) is open.
Appendix A - Installing the DCS-1100/1130 on a Router Without UPnP Router Setup The following steps generally apply to any router that you have on your network. The D-Link DIR-301 is used as an example to clarify the configuration process. Note: Because a dynamic WAN IP address can change from time to time depending on your ISP, you may want to obtain a Static IP address from your ISP.
Appendix A - Installing the DCS-1100/1130 on a Router Without UPnP 4) Use Port Forwarding to Enable Remote Image Viewing You will need to use port forwarding on your router to open ports for remote access to your camera. This is sometimes referred to as Virtual Server Settings. Please proceed as follows: • Go to the Port Forwarding section of your router. • Enter a Name for the port forwarding rule, such as your camera name. • Enter your camera’s IP address in the private/local IP field.
Appendix A - Installing the DCS-1100/1130 on a Router Without UPnP Viewing Your Camera Over the Internet After all settings have been entered correctly, a user inside or outside your network will have access to the camera through a standard Web browser. To access your camera, simply type in the IP address of the router given to you by your ISP, a colon, and the HTTP port number that you gave your camera.
