UserUser ManualManual9Figure 2.62.2 Access the Camera in WAN2.2.1 Static IP AddressesUsers who have static IP addresses do not need to set DDNS service settings for remote access. When youhave finished connecting the camera using the LAN IP address and port forwarding, you can access thecamera directly from the Internet using the WAN IP address and port number.How to Obtain the WAN IP address from a public website ?To obtain your WAN IP address, enter the following URL in your browser: http://www.whatismyip.com.Thewebpage at this address will show you the current WAN IP.Enter the camera’s url , heretake https://192.168.8.129:443for example .Click this button to add it .
UserUser ManualManual10Figure 2.7Access your IP Camera from the InternetYou can access the IP Camera from the Internet (remote access). Enter the WAN IP address and port numberin your standard browser. For example, you would enter http:// 183.37.28.254:85NOTE :Make sure port forwarding is successful. You can do port forwarding two ways.1. Login to your router to enable the “UPNP” function. You can then login to the camera as administrator,choose Network, and then choose UPnP to enable UPnP. Make sure that the status of UPnP reads “UPnPSuccessful” on the Device Status page.2. Do port (HTTP port) forwarding manually. (See Figure 2.11 for further details)If your router has a Virtual Server, it can do port forwarding. Add the camera’s LAN IP and port which you hadset earlier to your router’s port forwarding settings.NOTE: If you plug the camera into a router, it will have a dynamic IP address and you need to set DDNSservice settings to view it remotely.Step 1: Enter the username and password of the Administrator (default username is admin with a blankpassword), and click “OK” to apply changes.Step 2: Wait around 10 seconds, you’ll see that the camera’s LAN IP address has changed. In our example itwas changed to 2000, so we see http://192.168.8.102:2000 in IP Camera Tool. Also, the LAN IP address isnow fixed at a static IP address of http://192.168.8.102:2000. This IP address will not change even if thecamera is powered off and back on, the camera will remain on this LAN IP address. This is very important thata static LAN IP address is set, or you may have problems later with remote access and seeing the cameraremotely if the camera loses power and reconnects on a different LAN IP address. Make sure you set a staticLAN IP address!
UserUser ManualManual112.2.2 Dynamic IP AddressesDDNS is a service that allows your IP Camera, especially when assigned with a dynamic IP address, to have afixed host and domain name. This means that even though your WAN IP address is constantly changing, youwill have a fixed hostname you can use to access your cameras at all times. You can access the cameradirectly from the Internet using the hostname and port number.What is the HTTP Port no.?1) Default HTTP Port is 88All cameras have the default HTTP port of 88. For example, if the LAN IP link of the camera ishttp://192.168.8.102:88, this means that the camera’s HTTP port is 88. You can change port 88 to another portif you’d like such as 2000 or 8090, which will not be conflict with other existing ports like 25, 21,10000.Here youcan set the port no. between 1 and 65535.2) Change the default http no.88 to another one.How to assign a different HTTP Port No. and fixed the LAN IP of the camera by the IPCamera Tool？Step 1: Open the IP Camera Tool, select the camera you would like to change the port of, right click on the IPaddress, and click on ”Network Configuration”, this brings up the network configuration box as shown in Figure2.8 and 2.9.Figure 2.8Select which camerayou’d like to change theport for, and right click.
UserUser ManualManual12Figure 2.9Figure 2.10What is Port forwarding?If you have never done port forwarding before, you can open and view the following link to understand thebasic concept. Port forwarding allows for outside connections to access a specific device on your network fromanywhere in the world. Every router automatically blocks any incoming connections for safety purposes. Usingport forwarding, you are telling your router to allow a connection through a certain port (you can think of it as agateway) into your router. You set this port to a specific device, in our case an IP Camera, so it can beaccessed from anywhere in the world.Click this link to learn more about port forwarding: http://portforward.com/help/portforwarding.htmHow do we configure Port Forwarding ?For this section, we will be using an example:Let’s say the camera’s LAN IP address is http://192.168.8.100:2000Step 1: Login to the router, and go to your router’s port forwarding or port triggering menu. Sometimes this isalso under the name of Virtual Server or NAT.Using the Linksys brand router as an example, we would log into the router, and go to the Applications& Gaming menu. We would then click on the “Single Port Forwarding” sub-menu.Step 2: Create a new column using the LAN IP address & HTTP Port of the camera within the router as shownbelow, then push OK or Submit to save your settings:Modify the Http Port.Enter the Username andpassword, click OK.
UserUser ManualManual13Figure 2.11First method :Use the embedded DDNS to access the camera via the InternetEach camera has an embedded unique DDNS domain name, the format of this domain name isxxxxxx.myipcamera.org. On the bottom of the camera, you can see the domain name sticker with thisinformation on it.For example, we can use cp4911.myipcamera.org. In the camera, click Settings at the top, click “Network” onthe left, then click “DDNS” to get to the DDNS settings page. Here you can see the unique domain name ofyour camera.Figure 2.12Now you can use “http://Domain name + HTTP Port” to access the camera via the Internet.Take hostname cp4911.myipcamera.org and HTTP Port of 2000 for example, the URL link to access thecamera via the Internet would be http:// test09.myipcamera.org:2000.Second method :Use the Third party DDNS to access the camera via the InternetFill the HTTP Port of thecamera in the columns ofExternal Port and InternalPort. Example: 2000Fill in this section with theLAN IP of the camera; wewould enter “100” for ourexample.Assign a name for the portforward setting here .
UserUser ManualManual14Step 1, Please go to the third party DDNS website(such as www.no-ip.com) to create a free hostname.Step 2, DO DDNS Service Settings within the CameraPlease set DDNS Settings within the camera by hostname, a user name and password you’ve got fromwww.no-ip.comTake hostname ycxgwp.no-ip.info, user name test, password test2012 for example.Firstly, goes to option of DDNS Settings on the administrator panel.Secondly, select No-Ip as a server.Thirdly, fill test as DDNS user, fill password test2012 as DDNS password, fill ycxgwp.no-ip.info as DDNSdomain and server URL, Then click save to make effect. The camera will restart and to take the DDNS settingseffective.Fourthly, after the restart, login the camera, and go to option of Device Status on the administrator panel, andcheck if the DDNS status is successful.If failed, please double check if you have input the correct hostname, user name, and password, andtry to redo the settings.NOTE :If you have set Third Party DDNS successfully ,the IPCAM Domain Name will be invalid. The Third PartyDDNS and the IPCAM Domain Name cannot work at the same time, the last time you configured will takeeffect.2.3 Using the VLC playerThis camera supports RTSP streaming, here you can view the camera using VLC player.RTSP URL rtsp:// [user name][:password]@IP:HTTP port number/videosreamThe part in the square brackets may be omitted.user name & password:The user name and password to access the camera.
