UPnP
Picture 4-12 UPnP
Note: For a camera in an Ethernet, UPnP function can make gateway or router perform
auto-port-mapping which maps the camera monitor port from gateway or router to the Ethernet
device, thus the firewall module on the gateway or router starts to open this port to other PCs on
the internet.
By UPnP protocol, it's able to set up mapping relation between private network and the internet.
Internal port is camera port while external port is router port. User can visit camera when accessing
to the external port. Configuration steps are as follows:
1)
Select “Enable” to enable UPnP function;
2) Set alias, then user can search the alias directly from the network on PCs which have enabled
UPnP protocol in the broadcast domain of the same Ethernet. Double-click the icon and the
system will pop up a page automatically for user to visit current IP address;
3) Select "Auto" or "Manual" for Mapping Mode;
4) Click "
Save
" to validate setting.
