Appendix A: Router Configuration

The following section describes the initial configuration of the router and port forwarding
for your router. If your router is not listed here, please refer to the
manufacturer's website for assistance with configuring your router to work with an IP
Camera.
Port Forwarding for your IP Camera
Your camera requires certain ports to be open on your router to allow other computers
on the Internet to "see" it on your internal network. Normally, your router will have the
less common ports disabled or blocked by the router's built-in firewall. In
order for the IP Camera applications to work properly and not be blocked, the firewall
settings need to be configured. In each instance there will be a trigger port and incoming
port(s), where traffic on the trigger port tells the firewall to open the incoming ports.
