LICENSED SOFTWARE AP

-66-

7.5.1 Network

The network configuration allows the DVR to connect to an Ethernet network or dial-up network.

PPPoE and DHCP network connection types are required to apply a DDNS service to get a “Hostname” to correspond to a

dynamic IP address. Please refer to section “3.6.2 DDNS Apply” at page 14 for details.

‧ Web Port:

The DVR can be viewed over the network with the licensed software AP or the IE web browser. Typically, the TCP port

used by HTTP is 80. However in some cases, it is better to change this port number for added flexibility or security. The

valid number ranges from 1 to 9999.

‧ Static IP:

Computers are communicated and recognized by their own unique IP addresses over the Internet. “Static IP”

provided by your ISP (Internet Service Provider) means the IP address of the computer is fixed, and is suitable to build a

website.

In this “Network” menu, choose “Static IP”, and enter the “Server IP”, “Gateway”, “Net Mask” and “Web Port”. Then,

press “APPLY” button to confirm.

‧ PPPOE

PPPOE stands for Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet. Users can easily have Internet services as long as

they’re ready for the following things: 1) Insert an Ethernet card into the PC. 2) Obtain ADSL service via any ISP. 3)

Obtain and install PPPoE software CD.

In this “Network” menu, choose “PPPOE” and enter the “User Name”, “Password” provided by your ISP (Internet

Service Provider) and “Web Port”. Then, select “Network”  “DDNS” to set DDNS settings (see “(1) DDNS” at page 67

for details). When all the settings are completed, press “APPLY”.
