Upnp - Swann 24 Channel Digital Video Recorder User Manual

ADVANCED CONFIGURATION
EN
Configuration: Network: UPnP
Enable UPnP: UPnP makes configuring your network easier
and faster. To use the UPnP setting on the DVR, you'll need
a router which supports this feature, with UPnP enabled.
Note that many routers which do support UPnP do not
come with the feature enabled by default. You may need to
ask your Internet service provider to turn it on.
When UPnP is enabled on your DVR and your router, the
ports that the DVR requires to be open for access to and
from the Internet will automatically be opened and closed
as necessary by your router, saving you the trouble of
manually forwarding these ports. If UPnP is not enabled,
or your router does not support this feature, you'll need to
forward the ports the DVR uses from the router to the DVR
- since this is a technically challenging process; we strongly
recommend using UPnP if possible.
Configuration: Network: PPPoE
PPPoE is an advanced protocol that allows the DVR to be
more directly connected via a DSL modem. This is an option
for advanced users only.
Username: Enter the username for your DSL account
provider.

Mapping Type: We recommend changing this to the Auto
setting.
Edit: Allows you to change the current External Port
number.
Make sure that the number used for the External Port
and Internal Port match, otherwise the UPnP function
will not work. For information on how to change the
internal port numbers, see "Configuration: Network:
More Settings" on page 24.
Mapping IP Address: Will display the public IP address of
the router that the DVR is connected to.
Status: If UPnP is working correctly, you will see Active
displayed. If UPnP is not enabled or you haven't forwarded
the correct port number, the status will be Inactive.
Password: Enter the password for your DSL account
provider.
