HTTP port / Secondary HTTP port: By default, the HTTP port is set to 80 and the secondary HTTP port is set to 8080� They can also be assigned to another port number between 1025 and 65535� If the ports are incorrectly assigned, the following warning messages will be displayed:

To access the Network Camera on the LAN, both the HTTP port and secondary HTTP port can be used to access the Network Camera� For example, when the HTTP port is set to 80 and the secondary HTTP port is set to 8080, refer to the list below for the Network Camera’s IP address�

On the LAN

http://192.168.4.160 or

http://192.168.4.160:8080

Access name for stream 1 ~ 5: This Network camera supports multiple streams simultaneously� The access name is used to differentiate the streaming source� Users can click Media > Video > Stream settings to set up the video quality of linked streams� For more information about how to set up the video quality, please refer to Stream settings on page 78�
