Network storage
You can add network-attached hard drives to setup a NAS or IP SAN system.
Note: Ensure that the network storage device is available within the network and is
properly connected. Also the network storage device must be configured with NAS or IP
SAN mode.
To add network-attached hard drives:
1. From the menu toolbar, click Configuration and then Remote Configuration >
Network Settings > Network Storage. The Network Storage window appears.
2. Enter the IP address of the network storage system and file path in the text field.
Note: Under File Path, enter the file path name to define where on the remote
storage system you want to store the files. If using a NAS storage system, you must
add the prefix “/nfs” or “nfs V3” to the NAS path. No credentials are required.
3. Select the network storage type. Select from NAS or IP SAN.
Note: Only NAS with NFS version 3.0 or higher is supported. The NAS must be able
to be used without login credentials.
4. Click Save to save the settings.
UPnP settings
The encoder supports UPnP (Universal Plug and Play). This feature lets the encoder
automatically configure its own port forwarding, if this feature is also enabled in the
router.
You can select one of two methods to set up UPnP:
Automatic mapped type: The encoder automatically uses the free ports available that
were set up in the Network Settings menu.
Manual mapped type: You enter the particular external port settings and IP addresses
required to connect to the desired router.
