3.6 Visit Network Camera in Internet
3.6.1 Visit network camera with static IP
When there is a static IP from an ISP, open some ports (such as 80 and 8000 ports) in the router.
Then a user can visit it through a web browser or client software via the internet. The steps for port
forwarding are different for each model of router. Please call the router manufacturer for assistance
with port forwarding or visit www.portforward.com.
Note: Refer to Appendix 2 to for a detailed explanation about Port Map.
Users can directly connect the network camera to the internet without using a ro u te r.

dial-up access to an ADSL network to get a public IP address; First, through local network access to
the network camera, select “Configure””Right Click the Device”, Select “Remote Configuration”,
Select “PPPoE Settings” under “Network Paramters” fill in the PPPoE user name and password and
confirm the password. Please restart the network camera after completion of configuration. Then
the network camera can obtain a dynamic IP from an ISP operation business. However, the obtained
IP address is dynamically assigned via PPPoE, so the IP address always changes accompanied with
modem rebooting.
Fig.3.6.5 PPPoE configuration dialog box
It is inconvenient to view a network camera with a dynamic IP, therefore, users should register with
a dynamic DNS service provider. (Such as DynDns.com)
Domain name resolution contains normal domain name resolution and private domain name
resolution. First, we will introduce normal domain name resolution.
1. Normal Domain Name Resolution
User Manual of Network Camera
33
33
Fig.3.6.6 Normal Domain Name Resolution
Apply a domain name from a domain name provider, then view the camera via the applied domain
name. If the camera connects to the internet via a router, users should port forward the router.
Please refer to Appendix 2.
Input domain names in the client software or IE to view the network cameras. Take the client
software configuration as an example.

2. Private Domain Name Resolution
Fig.3.6.8 Private Domain Name Resolution
A PC with a static IP which is running the domain name resolution service is necessary.
When the network camera connects to the internet through PPPoE and obtains an IP address, it will
send its name and IP address to the resolution server. When the client software connects to the
network camera, it will connect to the resolution server and tell the resolution server the expected
camera’s name. And the server will find the camera from all the registered cameras and send its IP
address to the client software. Once the client software gets the IP address, it can connect the
network camera.

Appendix 2 Port Map
Note: The following setting is about TP-LINK router (TL-R410), which is maybe distinct from other router’s
setting.
1. Firstly, select the router’s WAN connection Type. As the following Fig. shows:
2. Set the “network parameter” of the router as the below figure. The setting includes subnet mask and gateway.
3. Set the port map in the virtual severs of Forwarding. By default, camera uses port 80, 8000, 554 and 8200. You
can change these ports value with IE or client software.
The following figure gives the illustration. One camera’s ports are 80, 8000, 554, 8200 and its IP address is
192.168.1.23. The other camera’s ports are 81, 8001, 555, 8201 and IP is 192.168.1.24. Afterwards, enable all or
TCP protocols. Enable the port map after pressing the ‘Save’.

As the above mentioned setting, we map the router’s port 80, 8000, 554, 8200 to the network camera
192.168.1.23; and port 81, 8001, 555, 8201 to the network camera 192.168.1.24. In this way, user can visit the
192.168.1.23 through visiting the router’s port 80, 8000, 554 and 8200.
Note: The port of the network camera cannot conflict with other ports. For example, some router’s web
management port is 80. User can amend the router’s or the camera’s port to solve this problem.
