3.4.4 WRS
When a NetDVR is connected via ISDN, xDSL or a cable modem, its IP address changes
whenever it reconnects to the Internet service provider. In this case, users don’t know the IP
address and thus cannot access the NetDVR. This is why the WRS (Web Registration
Server) is necessary. Connection to the NetDVR is then done via the WRS services.
•
Registration Interval: Enter the time interval for automatic registration of the NetDVR’s
IP address at the WRS server.
•
Registration Server and Group ID: This is to enter your own server and group ID on the
WRS. The ‘Group ID’ is used for organizing the NetDVR devices in groups on the
WRS.
Note:
This function requires installation of a separate WRS server with dedicated software.
3.4.5 Port assignment
The ‘Port Assignment’ section of the ‘Network’
tab is to configure Playback port and
Monitoring port when a firewall is present in
the network.
•
Select ‘Normal’ for networks without a
firewall.
•
Select ‘Firewall’ for networks with a firewall
•
Click on 'Advanced’ to manually set the
playback and monitoring port.
Note:
The Viewer program uses port 8105 as playback port
and port 8001 as monitoring port for surveillance. If the
ports are blocked on the network, available ports should
be entered manually. The changed value is effected after
rebooting. To return to defaults, click on the ‘Default’
button, and the changed value is reconfigured as the
default values (8105 and 8001). The firewall function
uses port 80, which is normally open for browsing the
Internet. Using this port for playback and monitoring
may slow down the frame rate.
Click the “Apply” button to upload the settings
into the NetDVR.
