24D-Link DCS-5605/DCS-5635 User Manual
If you connect your camera behind a router and want to view video from the Internet, you must open (forward) ports to your camera.
You will need to statically assign the IP address and network information in the camera. Some routers will allow you to set a “reservation”
and assign an IP address to the camera automatically. Please refer to your router documentation for more information.
After you have completed the setup of the DCS-5605/DCS-5635 outlined in the Quick Install Guide you will have an operating camera
that has an assigned IP Address. Because you are using a router to share the Internet with one or more PCs, the IP Address assigned
to the camera will be a local IP Address. This allows viewing within your Local Area Network (LAN) until the router is congured to allow
remote viewing of the camera over the Internet.
Step 1 - Log into the camera’s web-based conguration by entering its IP address in a web browser such as Internet Explorer.
Step 2 - Enter the username admin and enter your password.
Step 3 - The Live Video page will appear. Click the Setup tab and then click Network Setup on the left side. The following page will appear.
Using the Camera with a Router
Step 4 - Click Static IP Address and then enter the IP Address, Subnet Mask,
Default Gateway (usually the IP address of your router), and the DNS servers.
Step 5 - At the bottom, write down the ports listed. If you have more than one
camera, you will need to have different port numbers for each. Enter the port
numbers and click Save Settings.
Step 6 - You must now log into your router and navigate to the page that allows
you to open or forward ports. Enter the listed ports and forward to the IP address
of your camera.
By default the HTTP Port is 80 (TCP) and the RTSP Port is 554 (TCP/UDP).
