HTTP Port:
The device supports two HTTP ports. The first one is default port 80 and this port is fixed.
This port is very useful for Intranet usage. The second HTTP port is changeable. Users
could assign the second port number of http protocol, and the WAN users should follow the
port number to login. If the http port is not assigned as 80, users have to add the port
number in back of IP address. For example:
http://192.168.0.100:8080
.
Therefore, the user can access the device by either
http://xx.xx.xx.xx/
, or
http://xx.xx.xx.xx:xxxx/
to access the device.
If multiple devices are installed on the LAN and also required to be accessed from the WAN,
then the
HTTP Port
can be assigned as the virtual server port mapping to support multiple
devices.
