Internet Router/Firewall Setting
How to access IP Camera form outside of LAN or Intranet
(1) Public IP address
In general, setting IP based video and voice end point device are close to the same and it
subjects to be different from router, switch, firewall and VPN environment. Please refer to
the manual to set up a static public IP address, network mask and default gateway. This is
the simplest way to bring up video device on the network.
(2) DMZ
De-Military Zone are quite popular and simple to bring up a server or device to allow
external user to access. A router normally stops incoming Internet traffic from getting
information inside the network, unless the traffic is to designate to one of your computers
and route will IP address and port forwarding the packet. But instead of discarding the
incoming traffic or using port forwarding, you can send incoming traffic to any device on
your network by establishing a "Default DMZ Server". (DMZ = humorous reference to
"Demilitarized Zone".) This avoids you having to figure out what ports an Internet
application wants — by throwing all ports open for that device.
Please refer to your router/firewall manual that there are hardware DMZ port or software
DMZ port. In the most case SOHO router, the software DMZ does only allow a single device
can refer to. Thus, the network device like video server or camera need to set into an
private IP address.
After setting up complete, the viewer should be able to use router’s public IP address to
access. Please note that
(1) If you use HTTP to streaming the video – make sure there is no second device including
router or firewall are using TCP port 80. Other wise, you have to change the port to others
to differentiate from it. For example,
http://71.6.38.188:8888 is showing router ‘s public IP
address is 71.6.38.188 and network device could be any available static private IP address
with port 8888 for HTTP streaming access.
(3) Port forwarding
This is a one of common programs and the ports they use for network access.
Port Forwarding can typically be used to enable similar functionality, but it is static and has
