4.1 Router setup guidelines
To enable the NVR to communicate with networks beyond a router, the router must be configured for Port Forwarding. For manual
router setup:
•
After selecting this method and confirmation, please “ Download static tunnels info “ . This link contains information about
the port forwarding setup you need to apply to your router.
•
Several ports required to configure on a router, so the router must have enough entries available in a Port Forwarding table.
•
Router must support Network Address Port Translation (NAPT). I.E., they must be able to translate not only IP addresses, but
also ports X:Y. For example: 95.47.107.164:60000 (WAN) -> 192.168.10.123:80
NOTE
Usually the SLS-ENVR will automatically determine whether the client is connecting locally or remotely and uses proper addressing.
Sometimes (ie. with VPN access) it may be difficult to detect automatically. Use the “
Force local / remote access “ option on login
dialog screen.
4.2 NVR setup guidelines
The SLS-ENVR can be configured to connect to external networks even when it is located on a LAN separated from other networks
by a router. Both the NVR and router must be configured to enable this feature. To configure the NVR for remote access, go to
Settings
-
Configuration
-
Remote Access
In the menu Settings - Remote access menu, two options are provided:
•
Automatic setting of the router - If your router supports control via UPnP protocol 4, the SLS-ENVR can set up the remote
access automatically. With this option, the SLS-ENVR makes the cameras accessible dynamically when viewing live video using
the SLS-ENVR.
