router. This completely exposes the DMZ device address to the “WAN”. From the home/office LAN/WAN
192.168.0.50 effectively becomes the IP address of the NVR.
Another way to set up access to the NVR through this router is using the automated “NAT” feature in the NVR.
This will open up the IP ports through the AUXILIARY router that joins the secondary camera network with the
home/office LAN/WAN. It will be necessary to manually configure the existing home/office LAN/WAN router to
forward the necessary ports to the auxiliary router, so it can pass that traffic on to the NVR.
DDNS on the NVR should have no problems. Contact from the recorder to the DDNS server (presuming that the
DNS information has been properly entered in all router and NVR network configuration settings) is outbound
and should be unrestricted. Inbound, the DDNS name directs the communication to the site’s WAN IP address,
and port access should be forwarded by the site’s WAN router onward to the auxiliary router, which in turn
forwards the requests to the recorder.
