Configuration: Network: UPnP
UPnP is enabled by default and in most circumstances there is no need to change the
default settings. If you have certain network requirements, you can edit the settings to
suit your needs.
Enable UPnP (check box):
This will be enabled by default.
Server Port:
This is the internal port that the DVR will use to send information through.
This particular port number (8000) is not used by many devices, however if you have
another DVR or DVR-like device, you may need to change it. An alternative port num-
ber to use is 9000. Make sure that the number used for the “External Port” and “Inter-
nal Port” both match, otherwise the UPnP function will not work.
HTTP Port:
This port is used to log into your DVR via your network or remotely. The
default port number (85) is seldom used by other devices, however if you have another
device using this port, you may need to change it. An alternative port number to use is
90. Make sure that the number used for the “External Port” and “Internal Port” both
match, otherwise the UPnP function will not work.
RTSP Port:
This port is used to stream real-time images to your mobile device. If you
are having issues streaming video to your mobile device or your mobile service pro-
vider is blocking access, we recommend to change this to 5554. Do not change this if
everything is working ok.
Don’t forget to click “Apply” to save settings.
Please note, if all the settings are correct, the “Status” will change from “Inactive” to
“Active”.
