11. Remote Access to a Camera & Router Setup
To gain access to a camera in your local network over the Internet, certain ports need to be
opened and forwarded in your router. The camera uses the following ports by default:
- Web Server port = 80
- Image Transfer port = 40001 -Audio Send port = 40008
-Audio Receive port = 40008
- Upgrade port = 9000
- PTZ port = 10000
- ETSP port = 11000
To view the live image over the Internet, the Web server port and image transfer port need to be
opened and forwarded in the router. To receive and send sound, the audio send and receive ports
must also be added to the router configuration.
Before you can add the information in the router, find out which local IP address your camera has
and which ports it uses by connecting to the camera's Web administrator menu (Network
Configuration screen).

other brands is very similar, but some details may be different.

with the Web server (private and public port should be identical), select type = TCP and enter a
description in the comment field. Click on ADD. Repeat the steps for the other ports.
The end result should look like this:
Click "Apply" to save the settings.
