default. For greater security, you can change the port to a custom one.
When HTTP port is set to 80, you can access the camera by typing its IP address (for example,
http://192.168.1.100) on a web browser. When HTTP port is set to another value (for example,
2000), you need to enter http://192.168.1.100:2000 instead.
