Making Video Available From The Internet - Planet Internet Camera ICA-500 User Manual

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 ICA-500 available via the Internet.
ICA-500 Setup
The ICA-500 configuration does NOT have be changed, unless:
•
You wish to change the port number from the default value (1024).
•
You wish to use the DDNS (Dynamic DNS) feature of the ICA-500.
Second HTTP Port Configuration
Normally, HTTP (Web) connections use port 80. Since the ICA-500 uses HTTP, but
port 80 is likely to be used by a Web Server, you can use a different port for the ICA-
500. This port is called the "HTTP Port2". (The first port is port 80.)
The HTTP port2 is disabled in default settings. If you prefer to use a different port
number than port 80, you can specify the port number on the ICA-500's Network
screen, as shown below.
The Network screen is part of the Web-based Administration interface. See Web-
based Management for further details on using this interface.
Viewers need to know this port number in order to connect and
Hint
view live Video, so the current communication port number has to
be informed to the remote users to connect to.
