For example, your router and IP settings may look like this:

Device

IP Address: internal

IP Address: External Port (Mapped port on the

 

port

router)

Public IP of router

122.146.57.120

 

LAN IP of router

192.168.2.1

 

Camera 1

192.168.2.10:80

122.146.57.120:8000

Camera 2

192.168.2.11:80

122.146.57.120:8001

...

...

...

Configure the router, virtual server or firewall, so that the router can forward any data coming into a preconfigured port number to a network camera on the private network, and allow data from the camera to be transmitted to the outside of the network over the same path.

Forward to

122.146.57.120:8000

192.168.2.10:80

122.146.57.120:8001

192.168.2.11:80

...

...

When properly configured, you can access a camera behind the router using the HTTP request as follows: http://122.146.57.120:8000

If you change the port numbers on the Network configuration page, please open the ports ac- cordingly on your router. For example, you can open a management session with your router to configure access through the router to the camera within your local network. Please consult your network administrator for router configuration if you have troubles with the configuration.

For more information with network configuration options (such as that of streaming ports), please refer to Configuration > Network Settings. VIVOTEK also provides the automatic port for- warding feature as an NAT traversal function with the precondition that your router must support the UPnP port forwarding feature.
