UPnP
It is an advanced setting. Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) is architecture for peer-to-peer
network connectivity and it will connect to the IP camera from Internet more seamlessly
Enable
Enable UPnP
External Port
The external port of port forwarding or port mapping. We
recommend you enter the internal Port, such as 8001.
Status
The status of UPnP
Notice:
As UPNP is also easily affected by router or firewall, sometimes it may show failed status. If
this happens, please forward the camera’s port on your router manually. Whether UPNP
succeeds or not, it will not affect the camera’s remote access.
To be able to use UPnP your router must be enabled to allow UPnP-mode.
Be carefully, because UPnP not only opens a port for the camera. All other units within your
network are also able to open free accessible ports to internet and function for incoming
request from internet enabling to access your computers. So this is a potential security risk!
Ask an experience IT specialist to assist you, if you are not familiar with NAT/Port forwarding
on your router.
Alarm
Notice:
When motion detection and/or sound detection are enabled especially during the night,
false alarm might occur because of sudden change in light. Thus it is not considered as a
product defect, and TENVIS is not responsible for the resulting loss.
Email Alert
Once the motion detection alarm is enabled, camera will send snapshots to the specified
email when it detects moving objects.
