Operating Instructions

Notes

When registering an additional camera, modify the settings on the camera side too. For details, see the camera's manuals.

When registering an additional camera, it is necessary to set port forwarding and/or packet filtering. Set them manually, referring to pages 61, 69, and 74. Also, when using this product under a UPnP™ router, even if the settings for top level routing and address translation are set to Disable, it is necessary to set routing for the other connecting area routers.

When registering an additional camera, it is necessary to set screen assignment. Set it manually, referring to page 47.

Neither the DHCP server's Available Address Range specified in LAN IP Address DHCP Server in Options, or the Available Address Range specified in PPTP Server Settings found on the Basic Page of VPN should be set as the IP address range used in the Camera's Automatic Setup.

It is possible to set the selected camera portal frame to enable it to be accessed from the WAN side, but when registering an additional camera manually, further settings such as filtering (see page 69) or address translation (see page 61) must be performed on this product. When a camera is automatically registered, filtering settings and address translation are performed automatically.

When manually registering a WAN side camera, it is not possible to view the camera images by clicking Confirm when the camera is Temporarily Saved. Click Confirm after restarting to view the camera images.

When setting IPsec, enable IPsec on the VPN(IPsec) page.

When camera images cannot be viewed by clicking Confirm after adding an IPv6 camera, it should be possible to view them using a browser where you can specify an IPv6 address directly into the URL (e.g. Mozilla 1.7.1 or later). However, using a browser other than Internet Explorer 6.0 or later is not under warranty.
