35 User Manual of Network Camera Chapter 3 Access over Internet 3.1 Access network camera with static IP When there is a static IP from an ISP, open some ports (such as 80 and 8000 ports) in the router. Then a user can visit it through a web browser or client software via the internet. The steps for port forwarding are different for each model of router. Please call the router manufacturer for assistance with port forwarding or visit www.portforward.com.
36 User Manual of Network Camera Figure 3.1.3 Selecting Normal IP 3.2 Access network camera with dynamic IP Figure 3.2.1 Access IPC through PPPoE Dial‐up This camera supports the PPPoE auto dial‐up function.
37 User Manual of Network Camera Figure 3.2.2PPPoE configuration Dialog box It is inconvenient to view a network camera with a dynamic IP, therefore, users should register with a dynamic DNS provider. (Such as DynDns.com) Domain name resolution contains normal domain name resolution and private domain name resolution. First, we will introduce normal domain name resolution. 1. Normal Domain Name Resolution Figure 3.2.

39 User Manual of Network Camera 2. Private Domain Name Resolution Figure 3.2.5 Private Domain Name Resolution A PC with a static IP which is running the domain name resolution service is necessary. When the network camera connects to the internet through PPPoE and obtains an IP address, it will send its name and IP address to the resolution server. When the client software connects to the network camera, it will connect to the resolution server and tell the resolution server the expected camera’s name.
User Manual of Network Camera 40 Appendix 1 SADP Introduction 1. Brief introduction SADP (Search Active Devices Protocol) is a kind of software which can automatically search network speed dome in LAN. User can modify the IP address, subnet mask and port of the device without visiting IP address of the device. Additionally, password of the super user in this device can be recovered as default.
User Manual of Network Camera 41 IP address, subnet mask, device port editing and password validating box, as following: Input new IP address, subnet mask, and port number, and click “save” button. If a dialog pops up, showing “saved successfully”, that means you have modified the configuration information; if “saving failed” turns up, click the “cancel” button to quit it. 4. Recover default password You can reset the password of the super user as “12345” in the case of a lost password.
42 User Manual of Network Camera Appendix 2 Port Map Note: The following setting is about TP‐LINK router (TL‐R410), which is maybe distinct from other router’s setting. 1. Firstly, select the router’s WAN connection Type. As the following Figure shows: 2. Set the “network parameter” of the router as the below figure. The setting includes subnet mask and gateway. 3. Set the port map in the virtual severs of Forwarding. By default, camera uses port 80, 8000, 554 and 8200.
User Manual of Network Camera 43 As the settings mentioned above, map the router’s port 80 and 8000 to the network camera at 192.168.1.23; and port 81 and 8001 to the network camera at 192.168.1.24. In this way, user can access the 192.168.1.23 through accessing the router’s port 80 and 8000. Note: The port of the network camera cannot conflict with other ports. For example, some router’s web management port is 80. User can amend the router’s or the camera’s port to solve this problem.
