Chapter 6 Remote Surveillance
6.1 IE Remote Surveillance
In order to view the DVR from network, it must be connected to a LAN/WAN or Internet. The following introduces the connection and use of Internet. Remote access to the Internet has two types according to their online behavior.
6.1.1 On LAN
Step 1: Right-click "My Network Places" to pop-up a drop-down menu, then click
"Properties" to open the "Network connection".
Step 2: Double-click Local Area Connection ", then click "Properties" button. Step 3: Double-click "Internet Protocol (TCP / IP). Step 4: Obtain IP address, subnet mask and gateway of local computer. Step 5: Set the IP address, subnet mask and gateway of DVR.
Enter into the DVR’s Main MenuSetupNetwork configuration to enter IP address, subnet mask and gateway. Subnet mask and gateway must be same as the parameters of Internet Protocol, and IP address should be in the same field as your computer. E.g. if your computer is 192.168.1.8, then the IP address of DVR can be 192.168.1.X (X is an arbitrary integer between 0 and 255 in addition to 8 and 1), subnet mask is
255.255.255.0, and gateway is 192. 168. 1. 1. Step 6: After finish the above settings, input the IP address of DVR in browser
address bar to enter the login page, such as: 192.168.1.X. The network will download control automatically (the settings of browser must allow to download control, refer to
Appendix -1). Step 7: After the download is complete, interface will pop up a login window.

Step 2: Enter into the DVR’s Main MenuInformationNetwork information to obtain IP address, then input it in the browser, such as: http://210.21.229.138, user can enter the control download interface.
Step 3: The following setup steps are the same as steps 6-8 of Chapter 6.1.1 on LAN.
2. Connect the DVR to internet through router Step 1: Enter into the DVR’s Main MenuSetupNetwork configurationNetwork to
input IP address, subnet mask and gateway, or tick off "Obtain an IP address automatically." Step 2: Make sure the LAN can be connected; access your router by entering the gateway address, then log on the router management interface to map port. In this paper, we take Linksys router for example. Specify the IP address and port to be forwarded from the internal/local IP address of your DVR to the Internet in router "Port Range Forwarding" of "Applications & Gaming". Each DVR has two ports. (LAN IP address of DVR can be added to the DMZ host, different router’s configuration is different, and user can refer to the router manual.) After mapping the port, user can check the WAN IP address in the “running” of router, directly access to the DVR through the WAN IP address and HTTP port, such as: http://113.108.119.20:HTTP port number. Then enter into the control download interface.
