Making Video Available From The Internet - Planet IVS-100 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 IVS-100 available via the Internet.
IVS-100 Setup
The IVS-100 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 IVS-100.
Second HTTP Port Configuration
Normally, HTTP (Web) connections use port 80. Since the IVS-100 uses HTTP, but
port 80 is likely to be used by a Web Server, you can use a different port for the IVS-
100. 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 IVS-100'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.
DDNS (Dynamic DNS)
Many Internet connections use a "Dynamic IP address", where the Internet IP address
is allocated whenever the Internet connection is established.
