DHCP, this device will get all network parameters from the router automatically.

Port Assignment
Set the port if necessary. If this device will be connected via Internet, configure the
NAT (Network Address Translation) in router to match the port assignment.
HTTP Port:
Set the port for HTTP connection. The default is “80”, change the port if
you want to use router’s NAT (Network Address Translation) to make this device can
be linked from Internet.
UPnP Setting
UPnP:
Enable or disable the UPnP protocol.
This device supports UPnP, if the UPnP service is enabled on your computer, the
device will automatically be detected and a new icon will be added to “My Network
Places”.
Note: UPnP service must be enabled on your computer.
The Windows Vista and Windows 7 have enabled UPnP service by default. To activate
UPnP service in Windows XP, please follow the procedure:
1. Open the “Control Panel” from the “Start” menu.
2. Select “Add/Remove Programs”.
3. Select “Add/Remove Windows Components” and open “Networking Services”
section.
4. Click “Details” and select “UPnP” to setup the service.
5. The network device icon will be added to “My Network Places”.
6. You may double-click the network device icon to access it via IE browser.
UPnP Port Forwarding:
Enable or disable the “UPnP Port Forwarding” function.
The “UPnP Port Forwarding” function provides an easy way to configure the NAT
(Network Address Translation) in router. If the router equips “UPnP Port Forwarding”
function too, this device will ask the router to open the “External HTTP Port” and
“External RTSP Port” for this device automatically. Therefore, you don’t need to
configure the Port Forwarding manually.
Note: Not all routers equip “UPnP Port Forwarding” function. The device will report
whether this function is successful after click
[Apply]
button.
