connect to the NVR.
●
To use the
UPnP
(Universal Plug and Play) feature,
select
Use UPnP
. If using an IP router (or NAT), UPnP
service allows the device to automatically forward the
port to the NVR.
•
This port is used to access a port that has a private
IP address.
•
In order to use the UPnP service, the IP router (or
NAT) must support UPnP port forwarding and have
the relevant options enabled.
•
Port number cannot be changed with
Use UPnP
selected.

by the IP router (or NAT) to the NVR via UPnP service.
DHCP
Select
DHCP
and then
Save
to retrieve IP address and
other network settings automatically from the DHCP
server. Once the network settings have been retrieved,
the NVR’s current IP address is displayed in the IP
Address field.
•
It may not be possible to retrieve the IP address if
there is no DHCP server. If this is the case, contact
your network administrator.
•
With DHCP, the NVR's IP address might change with
each startup.
There is a limit to the number of users allowed to
connect remotely at the same time. Contact the
service center for more information.
