IX. Accessing XL-IVS2000 Video Server over the Internet
If your home or office LAN is connected to the Internet through a high speed (broadband) Internet connection, with at least 128 kbps upload bandwidth, you can access your cameras via the web browser from anywhere through the Internet. To do this you will need to:
1. Know your WAN (Internet) IP address. This is the IP address that your Internet Service Provider provides you to access the Internet. It may be static (always the same) or dynamic (can change from time to time).
2. Make sure the two ports used by the camera (80 & 8080) are forwarded by your router or gateway to the camera.
3. Make sure your XL-IVS2000 Video Server default gateway is set to the LAN (local) IP address of your router/gateway.
IX-1. WAN IP Address The WAN IP address that your Internet Service Provider provides you so that you can access the Internet is very different from the LAN or local IP address that your PCs and cameras are using to connect to your local network. Your WAN or Internet IP address is visible to the outside world (Internet) whereas your local addresses are not. To find your home or office network from the Internet you must know your WAN IP address. Your WAN IP address is stored by your gateway router, which uses it to
43
connect to the Internet. All the devices on your network connect to the Internet via your gateway router. You can find your current WAN IP address by checking your router status page. There are also various websites such as
http://www.whatismyip.nl/
or http://www.whatismyip.us/, which will tell you
the IP address that you are currently using to access the Internet.
Note: terminology
The term gateway is used generically to define a device that connects a local network to the Internet. A gateway may be a router, a PC running software which allows it to act as a gateway such as a proxy server, or some other devices. Most home networks use a NAT (Network Address Translation) router as a gateway. The term gateway router refers to such a device.
Static versus Dynamic IP address
The IP address (or addresses) that your ISP provided you will either be static, which means it never changes, or dynamic, meaning it will
change periodically. Dynamic addresses present an additional challenge when trying to locate your network from the Internet since your address may have changed since the last time you checked it. How often your dynamic address changes varies from one service provider to another. Also, any time you reboot your cable or DSL modem, you are likely to get a new address when reconnecting. The solution to the ever-changing IP address is known as DDNS or dynamic domain name service. A DDNS will allow you to find your network by a domain name, such as DynDNS, ZONEDIT, no-ip.com, rather than needing to know the IP address.
IX-2. Network Address Translation (NAT) Most home routers and business firewalls today perform something called NAT or Network Address Translation. NAT translates your external or WAN IP address into an internal address inside your gateway router. What it means is, you can think of your router as being divided into two halves, the LAN side (inside) and the WAN side (outside or Internet side). When a connection request arrives at your router from the Internet, it will not get any farther than the WAN side unless you have specifically instructed your router to pass this type of request to a specific device on your LAN. This process is know as port forwarding or port redirecting.
IX-3. Port Forwarding All the TCP/IP (Internet) networking uses software ports. Ports can be thought of as channels on your television. By default, all webpage traffic is on
channel (port) 80. By default, the XL-IVS2000 Video Server uses port 80 to
44
deliver its web page to your browser and port 1600 to send video. Therefore, both of these channels (ports) must be open (not blocked by your outer/firewall)
to incoming traffic in order to connect XL-IVS2000 Video Server from the Internet.
Also, these two ports must be forwarded or redirected to the camera’s LAN IP address by your gateway router. Your router’s setup software should provide a utility for port forwarding or redirecting. Router configuration contains setup help for some popular home networking gateway routers currently on the market.
Note:
Forwarding ports to your XL-IVS2000 Video Server does not pose any additional security risk to your LAN. Before setting up port forwarding, it is best
to configure your XL-IVS2000 Video Server to use a static LAN IP since your port forwarding setup will need to be updated if the video server’s LAN IP
address changed.
IX-4. Default Gateway Devices (PCs, IP cameras/Servers, etc.) on your network connect to the Internet via gateway. For most home networks, a NAT type router serves as the gateway. For office LANs, the gateway may be a PC running gateway software. To access any devices on your network from Internet, it must know the LAN IP
address of your gateway. If your XL-IVS2000 Video Server is set up to use DHCP, then it will retrieve this information automatically from your router.
However, if you have configured your camera to use a static IP address, you must be sure that you have set the correct gateway IP address in order to
connect your XL-IVS2000 Video Server to the Internet. If your XL-IVS2000 Video Server is now live on the Internet, browsing your XL-IVS2000 Video Server from the Internet is the same as browsing on
your LAN except that you must enter your WAN IP address instead of the LAN IP address.
X. Network Utilities
Microsoft Windows includes various network information utilities to determine
45
network configurations. To determine your IP address and network settings, follow the steps below, it’s depending on your operating system.
X-1. Determining your IP Address and Network Settings
Windows 98/Me:
1. Click on Start => Run and type ”command” and then press ENTER
2. In the MS- DOS window, type “winipcfg” and then press ENTER
3. This will display your network card’s Adapter Address, IP Address, Subnet
Mask, and Default Gateway. More information regarding WINIPCFG can be obtained by typing”winipcfg /?” at the MS -DOS prompt.
Note: WINIPCFG is located in the C:\Windows folder.
Windows 2000/XP:
1. Click on Start => Run and type”command” and then press
2. ENTER
2. In the MS- DOS window, type “ipconfig” and then press ENTER
3. This will display your network card’s IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway.
More information regarding IPCONFIG can be obtained by typing “ipconfig /?” at the MS - DOS prompt.
Note: IPCONFIG is located in the C:\Windows\System32 folder.
X-2. Using PING
PING is a very useful utility for checking to see if a XL-IVS2000 Video Server
46
is responding or checking to see if an IP address is available. In Windows 98/Me, PING is located in C:\Windows. In Windows 2000/XP, PING is located in C:\Windows\System32.
Windows 98/Me/2000/XP:
1. Click on Start =>Run and type”command” and then press ENTER
2. In the MS- DOS window, type “ping XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX” and then press
ENTER (Where XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX is your XL-IVS2000 Video Server IP address) For
example, if your XL-IVS2000 Video Server uses the IP address of
192.168.0.173, you would type in: ping 192.168.0.173
3. If there is a XL-IVS2000 Video Server, PC or other network devices
online using this address you will see: Pinging 192.168.0.173 with 32 bytes of data: Reply from 192.168.0.173: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128 Reply from 192.168.0.173: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128 Reply from 192.168.0.173: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128 Reply from 192.168.0.173: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128 Ping statistics for 192.168.0.173: Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss), Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds: Minimum = 0ms, Maximum = 0ms, Average = 0ms
If there is NO response on this address you’ll see Pinging 192.168.0.173 with 32 bytes of data: Request timed out. Request timed out. Request timed out. Request timed out. Ping statistics for 192.168.0.173:
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 0, Lost = 4 (100% loss),
This indicates that the address is available for use. However, there could still be a device which is currently offline which is configured to use the address. In order to be certain, make sure all your network devices are on and connected to network when checking for address availability.

the XL-IVS2000 Video Server Name and IP Address.
XI. Router Configuration
The following section describes the initial configuration of the router and port forwarding for some of the most common routers from 3Com, Belkin, D-Link, Linksys, Microsoft, NETGEAR, Proxim, Siemens, and SMC.
In order to access the XL-IVS2000 Video Servers from the Internet, you’ll need to configure your router to use ports 80 and 1600 (default settings).
Port 80 is used for accessing the XL-IVS2000 Video Server’s homepage and Port 1600 is used for authentication and video streaming. If your Internet
Service Provider blocks ports 80/1600, you’ll need to reconfigure your XL-IVS2000 Video Server and router to other ports such as 81/1601,
82/1602, etc. To change the port settings of the XL-IVS2000 Video Server, please Refer to Appendix B-I-3.
