When Port Mapping is set to Enable, the system will automatically assign an IP address or port number for
you if no IP address or port number is entered.
Note: When the configurations are saved successfully, you’ll see a message indicating the IP address
and port number assigned to this network camera.
3.2.10 RTP
The Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) is an Internet protocol standard to manage the real-time transmission of
multimedia, such as VLC player.
The media player you want to use for remote access must support RTP transmission for this function to work
normally.
Note: When you’re about to end the remote access, please press the stop button on your media player
first, and then close the program. This is to ensure the server receives the stop command, and also help to protect the server from redundant data transmission.
13
Function Description

3.2.11 SNMP
SNMP, Simple Network Management Protocol, is used to facilitate the exchange of management information
between network-attached devices, and network administrators could use it to monitor those devices.
The SNMP consists of three basic components:
Network-management systems (NMSs) to monitor and control the managed devices.
Managed devices as network nodes to save all network and management information, such as routers, access
servers, switches, bridges, hubs, etc.
Agents as network management software modules on managed devices to provide the status of managed devices
to NMSs.
Note: Before configuring SNMP settings, make sure your NMS is enabled first.
Enable SNMP V1 / V2C
Select Yes to enable this function, and enter the names of Read community and Write community based
on your NMS configurations.
To enable Traps to notify the management station of important events, choose V1 or V2C in Enable, enter
the address and community name, and select the event type(s) needed.
14
Enable SNMP V3
SNMP V3 has a higher security level than SNMP V1 / V2C to allow configuring the authentication password and
encryption password.
Choose Read/Write Security name or Read only Security name based on your NMS settings, and
enter the community name. Then, select the authentication type from MD5 or SHA, and enter the password for
authentication and encryption. The password length is from 8 to 31 characters.
3.2.12 IEEE 802.1X (For selected models only)
The settings here enable the camera to access a network protected by 802.1X/EAPOL (Extensible
Authentication Protocol Over LAN).
Note: For authentication to work properly, it's important to synchronize the time in the camera with an
NTP server.
Before using this function, make sure:
The switch and RADIUS server you have in the LAN environment supports IEEE 802.1X, and IEEE 802.1X
settings are enabled.
You’ve applied a digital certificate from a Certificate Authority which can be validated by a RADIUS server,
and the identity and password used.
Then, follow the steps below:
Step1:Connect this camera to a PC or laptop directly, and go to its login page to log in.
Note: To know how to connect the camera to a PC or laptop directly, please check “4 Modem / Hub +
Modem” in “ADVANCED NETWORK SETUP”.
Step2:Log into the camera, and go to ConfigNetworkIEEE 802.1X. Enable this function, and select
the EAP method you want to use.
Note: This camera supports EAP-PEAP, EAP-TLS and EAP-TTLS.
Step3:Enter the identity and password you get from the Certificate Authority,and select the EAPOL version
used in your switch.
Step4:Upload the certificate(s) issued by the Certificate Authority, and save.
Step5:Disconnect the camera from your PC or laptop, and connect it to the switch in the LAN environment you
want to use IEEE 802.1x, and the camera will start the authentication later.
15
3.2.13 Network Share
This function is used to assign a location in the LAN environment to save the snapshot of events.
Note: This function is available only for Windows operating systems.
The information you set here will be applied when “Network Share” is selected in Trigger→Snapshot→
Storage Mode.
To use this function, make sure:
A PC is installed in the same LAN environment as this camera, and you know the IP address of the PC.
