Router/Firewall functionality and operation depends on the make/model, firmware, etc. The
following screen shots related to router/firewall configuration are only for reference; functionality and
operation may differ from your equipment. Please refer to your router/firewall documentation for
additional information on functionality and operation.
The following assumes the use of the camera’s default Network/Streaming settings. If any changes were
made to the default settings (e.g. RTSP Port), then please account for these in the router/firewall
configuration.
For more information on the streaming port settings, refer to section

(page 16)
and

(page 3) for the HTTP port.

If a PC will access the web UI or stream camera video from the WAN/Internet, then additional configuration
is required on the client router/firewall.
