WebViewer
WebViewer is a Microsoft Internet Explorer® (IE) browser based DVR administrative tool. It is embedded in the DVR and loaded into
the browser when the DVR is accessed. The DVR can be accessed locally (on the same local network), or from a connection to the
Internet (remotely), depending on the network configuration. The URL (internet address) of the DVR is different depending the path
used to connect to it.
If your computer is on the same local network as the DVR you are accessing, the URL is the IP address shown in the DVR System
Information window. In the example shown below, the URL is the IP ADDRESS: 192.168.5.3.
If you are accessing your DVR remotely, your DVR may be addressed as a port forwarded through the router or device that connects
the network with the DVR to the Internet, or through an established DDNS web service connection such as WWW.OKDDNS.COM.
Refer to WWW.OKDDNS.COM for more information.
