5. Click the Alternate Configuration tab and verify the Automatic Private IP
address option is selected.
Note: The iCVR uses zeroconf for auto discovery. An IP address in the
169.254.x.x range will automatically be assigned to the iCVR.
Discovering the iCVR’s DHCP Assigned IP Address
The first time a camera is turned on it’s configured for DHCP. If there is a DHCP
server available to give it an address, the camera will acquire that address. If
there is not a DHCP server on the network, the camera will automatically acquire
the following:
IP Address :169.254.238.51
Subnet Mask :255.255.0.0
This is the same subnet that Windows defaults to when it cannot find a DHCP
server. Therefore both devices default to the same network and will be able to
communicate.
Configuring Port Forwarding
Software ports are numbered connections that a computer uses to sort types of
network traffic. For security reasons, only common ports for services such as
HTTP or FTP are open by default; most other ports on routers are closed so that
unauthorized traffic cannot flow through them.
Port forwarding lets a router accept a connection request coming in on its WAN
(internet) interface and directs it to an IP address on its LAN (private network)
interface. When port forwarding is configured on a router, the router looks at the
