Step 2: Wait around 10 seconds, you’ll see that the camera’s LAN IP address has
changed. In our example it was changed to 2000, so we see http://192.168.8.102:2000
in IP Camera Tool. Also, the LAN IP address is now fixed at a static IP address of
http://192.168.8.102:2000. This IP address will not change even if the camera is
powered off and back on, the camera will remain on this LAN IP address. This is very
important that a static LAN IP address is set, or you may have problems later with
remote access and seeing the camera remotely if the camera loses power and reconnects
on a different LAN IP address. Make sure you set a static LAN IP address!
4.2.2 Dynamic IP Addresses
DDNS is a service that allows your IP Camera, especially when assigned with a dynamic
IP address, to have a fixed host and domain name. This means that even though your
WAN IP address is constantly changing, you will have a fixed hostname you can use to
access your cameras at all times. You can access the camera directly from the Internet
using the hostname and port number.
What is the HTTP Port no.?
1) Default HTTP Port is 88
All cameras have the default HTTP port of 88. For example, if the LAN IP link of the
camera is http://192.168.8.102:88, this means that the camera’s HTTP port is 88. You
can change port 88 to another port if you’d like such as 2000 or 8090, which will not be
conflict with other existing ports like 25, 21,10000.Here you can set the port no. between
1 and 65535.
2)Change the default http no.88 to another one.
How to assign a different HTTP Port No. and fixed the LAN IP of the camera by the IP
Camera Tool
？
Step 1:
Open the IP Camera Tool, select the camera you would like to change the port
of, right click on the IP address, and click on ”Network Configuration”, this brings up the
network configuration box as shown in Figure 2.8 and 2.9.
Figure 4.5
Select which
camera you’d like
to change the port
for and right click
