Network / General

General menu :
When DHCP is active, the router will assign automatically all the network parame-
ters to your system. When DHCP is not active, you must set them manually:
IP Address: The IP address identifies the system in your network. It consists of
four groups of numbers between 0 to 255, separated by periods. For example,
"192.168.001.100".
Subnet Mask: Subnet mask is a network parameter which defines a range of IP
addresses that can be used in a network. If IP address is like a street where you
live, then subnet mask is like a neighborhood. The subnet address also consists of
four groups of numbers, separated by periods. For example, "255.255.000.000".
Gateway: This address allows the system to access the Internet. The format of the
Gateway address is the same as the IP Address. For example, "192.168.001.001".
DNS1/DNS2: DNS1 is the primary DNS server and DNS2 is a backup DNS server.
Usually it should be enough just to enter the DNS1 server address.
PPPoE menu :
This is an advanced protocol that allows the system to connect to the network
more directly via DSL modem. Only use this function when you are an expert.
Check the "Enable PPPOE" box, and then enter the Username & Password of the
PPPoE.Click Save to save. The system will reboot to active the PPPoE settings.
Wireless menu :
You will need a Wi-Fi dongle to use this function (available on our website).
Check the option Enable.
Click on Scan in the SSID field and double-click to select your WLAN net-
work.
Enter your WLAN password under Password.
Click on Join.
Save all settings with Save.
Port configuration menu :
Web Port: This is the port that you will use to log in remotely to the system (e.g.
using the Web Client). If the default port 80 is already taken by other applications,
please change it.
Client Port: This is the port that the system will use to send information through.
If the default port 9000 is already taken by other applications, please change it.
RTSP Port: Default is 554, if the default port 554 is already taken by other applica-
tions, please change it.
UPNP: UPNP makes it easy to connect to your system remotely. You do not need to
configure manually port forwarding on your router.
P2P: P2P makes it possible to scan the QR-code from the system on your smart-
phone and have access to your cameras for everywhere.
