Accessing VPort 2140 Video Server
Opening Your Browser
Open your browser, type the VPort’s IP address in the Address box, and then press Enter.
Authentication
After opening your browser and type the VPort’s IP address, a dialogue window will appear,
asking you to enter the username and the password. When accessing the VPort for the first time,
administrators must enter root as the username, and the MAC address, in capital letters, as the
password. You can find the MAC address on the VPort’s label. Primary users will be allowed to
access the VPort as soon as the administrator finishes adding user profiles. Upon successful
authentication, the VPort’s main page will be displayed.
Installing the Plug-in Application
If you access the VPort for the first time via a browser that supports server push (e.g., Netscape),
the video images will be displayed directly. If you are using Windows’ Internet Explorer as your
browser, you will be asked to install a new plug-in application provided by the VPort. This plug-in
application has been registered for certification, and is used to display video images via Internet
Explorer. Click on Yes to install the plug-in application. If your browser does not allow the user to
install the plug-in, change the security option to a lower level, or contact your network supervisor
for assistance.
