192.168.0.3, please forward the following ports for the Network Camera on the router.

■ HTTP port: default is 80

■ RTSP port: default is 554

■ RTP port for video: default is 5556

■ RTCP port for video: default is 5557

If you have changed the port numbers on the Network page, please open the ports accordingly on your router. For information on how to forward ports on the router, please refer to your router’s user’s manual.

3. Find out the public IP address of your router provided by your ISP (Internet Service Provider).

Use the public IP and the secondary HTTP port to access the Network Camera from the Internet. Please refer to Network Type on page 70 for details.

Internet connection with static IP

Choose this connection type if you are required to use a static IP for the Network Camera.

Please refer to LAN setting on page 69 for details.

When properly congured, you can access a camera behind the router using the HTTP request such as follows: http://122.146.57.120:8000

If you change the port numbers on the Network conguration page, please open the ports

accordingly on your router. For example, you can open a management session with your

router to congure access through the router to the camera within your local network. Please consult your network administrator for router conguration if you have troubles with the conguration.

For more information with network conguration options (such as that of streaming ports), please refer to Conguration > Network Settings. VIVOTEK also provides the automatic

port forwarding feature as an NAT traversal function with the precondition that your router must support the UPnP port forwarding feature.
