The Alarm Host IP refers to the IP address of the remote PC on which the CMS software (e.g.,
iVMS-4200) is installed, and the Alarm Host Port (7200 by default) must be the same as the alarm
monitoring port configured in the software.

and its valid range is 2000 to 65535.

HTTP Port: HTTP port (80 by default) should be configured for remote Web browser access.


239.252.0.0 to 239.255.255.255.
When adding a device to the CMS software, the multicast address must be the same as that of the
device.
