2. Network Configuration

After connecting to the Internet, DVR users should configure for remote view/playback.
1. LAN: When in LAN, network administrators should open the following ports for specific computers:
5000- 5001. Please make sure that other services do not use the same ports.
2. PROXY SERVER: If the connection to the Internet is by proxy server, users should utilize port
mapping software and open ports 5000 –5001 for the surveillance DVR.
3. ROUTER: If users connect to the Internet by router, users should add the IP address of the
surveillance DVR and open the above mentioned ports in DMZ setup or via Virtual Server setup of the
router (the names may be different for different types of routers) To do this, from a PC connected to the
same router as the DVR find out the IP Address of the router by going to the Start button, click on
Run-type in CMD and click OK, then type in IPCONFIG at the curser to list the IP, Gateway and Subnet.
If the IP is 192.168.1.xxx, then nothing else is needed. But if the IP is something like this:
192.168.0.xxx and Gateway: 192.168.0.1, then the IP of the DVR must be changed. Go to the SETUP
MODE menu and then to NETWORK SETUP and change the IP to 192.168.000.167 and Gateway to
192.168.000.001. Refer to your Router Manual under Router Setup on how to do port forwarding, to
forward ports 5000 and 5001 to the IP Address of the DVR. To access the DVR remotely you will also
need to put the IP address of the network the DVR is attached to into Netviewer. You can get this by
going to the website http://myipaddress.com from a computer attached to the same router as the DVR.
Enter this address into the IP window in Netviewer and enter the password for the DVR which is 0000
