Network
The Network screen allows you to enable and disable various remote access functions,
like Clients, and change various ports used by the Remote Clients and Web Clients,
among other options. Note that a change to ports here will require a change to default
port settings on the Remote and Web Clients.
While we recommend that customers change the default ports when network security is
a concern, it is important to note the port settings used and keep those settings written
down outside of the Network tab.
Network Administrators should be made aware of the ports required for Client to Server
communications. Router configurations will need to be updated if the ports are changed.
Care should be taken to avoid port conflicts with other software in use on the Server and
Clients.
Remote Client Service
Maximum Bandwidth Used: This setting governs the total Bitrate the Server is allowed to
service all Client connections. Sometimes called Bandwidth Throttle.
Remote Client Service: If checked, the Server will accept incoming Client connections.
Check User: If checked, the Server will invoke User Permissions on all incoming
connections. If not checked, then any user with the Client software on the network can
access all functions of the Server. This box is normally only left unchecked for installer
and troubleshooting purposes.
Max Connections: Set the maximum number of connections allowed by the Server.
Ports (All other fields in this section): The network port numbers used by the various
functions of the Server and Client are listed here and can be changed.
NOTE: You must
change the Command Port on ALL Client connections if you change the Command Port
here.
Web Service
Web Service: If checked, the Server will activate its integrated web service.
Limit one channel per user: If checked, the Server will only allow one video stream per
remote web client.
Server Port Configure the web service port. 80 is the default. If changed, the users must
enter the port number as part of the web address in their web browsers.

The Server can send email alerts based on various alarm types, and this email configuration
is used when a user sends a snapshot or video clip via email.
