The Media Port is used for connecting to the DVR using the Netviewer software.

order for remote access to function.

The default value is 80, which is the http port standard.
Typically it is not necessary to change this value unless the ISP blocks port 80.
A port forwarding rule must be created for the web port.

value rarely needs to be changed, it must be matched with the correct address of
the network.
