Making Video available from the Internet
If your LAN is connected to the Internet, typically by a Broadband Gateway/Router
and Broadband modem, you can make the Network Camera available via the
Internet. You will need to configure your Router or Gateway to allow connections
from the Internet to the camera.
Router/Gateway Setup
Your Router or Gateway must be configured to pass incoming TCP (HTTP)
connections (from Internet Viewers) to the Network Camera. The Router/Gateway
uses the Port Number to determine which incoming connections are intended for the
Network Camera.
This feature is normally called Port Forwarding or Virtual Servers, and is illustrated
below. The Port Forwarding/Virtual Server entry tells the Router/Gateway that
incoming TCP connections on port 1024 should be passed to the Network Camera.
If necessary, check the user manual for your Router/Gateway for further details.

The "Port" for the Port Forwarding / Virtual Server entry
above is the " Secondary Port" number specified on the
Network screen of the Network Camera.
