Installing the DCS-900 Behind a Router
Assigning and Opening the HTTP Port on the DCS-900
(For Installing Multiple Cameras)
Opening ports will allow users to view the camera via the Internet. The ports that are opened must be unique for each camera in order to successfully view the images
remotely.
1) Open the HTTP Port
The HTTP Port option is used when multiple cameras are being installed behind a single public IP address and will be accessed remotely OR for using a port other
than the default port for image viewing. For each additional camera that is installed, you must assign the appropriate Web server port for each camera to enable
remote viewing.
By default, port 80 (Web server port) is open. If these ports are available for use, you DO NOT have to open a second port and can proceed to the next section. If port
80 is not available (for example, if you are already using port 80 to run a Web server or your ISP blocks access on port 80*) you MUST open a second port and
designate a new Web server port (800, 801, 802,
…
etc).
IMPORTANT
: Be sure to take note of these settings since these same settings will be used to configure your router.
NOTE:
Some ISPs block traffic on commonly used ports like port 80 to prevent consumers from putting a server on their network. Be sure to check with your ISP so
that you can open the appropriate ports accordingly. If your ISP does not pass traffic on port 80, you will need to change the Web server port the camera
uses from 80 to something else, like 800. If you are behind a router, you will need to open a corresponding port on your router as well. Not all routers are the
same, please refer to your router’s user’s manual for specific instructions on how to forward ports.
