2.2.6 Remote connection
To connect to the recorder from a computer on the local area network, follow the instructions in Sections 4.7.1 to 4.7.3.
To connect to the recorder from a computer that is not on the local area network, you must first connect to the external IP address of the router. To do this, you must obtain the following information from the internet service provider (ISP):
- Type of IP address (static or dynamic).
- If the IP address is dynamic, whether it is possible to obtain a static IP address. If it is, request one.
If the IP address is static, go to Section 4.7.4.2.
If the IP address is dynamic and it is not possible to obtain a static address, the access must be configured with a dynamic DNS account.
The modem routers provided by telephone operators, often referred to as “Boxes”, are the exclusive property of the operators. They may be updated or reconfigured at any time, which may change or delete the configurations previously set by the customer.

4.7 Network functions
4.7.1 Addressing
Step 1: Open the “Start” menu on a computer connected on the same network as the recorder by clicking on the button in the taskbar.
Step 2: Enter “cmd” in the “Search programs and files” field and press “Enter” on the keyboard.
The terminal window appears.
Step 3: Enter “ipconfig” and press “Enter” on the keyboard.
The network data appears: IP address, subnet mask and default gateway.
48
Step 4: Select the recorder’s IP address
The IP address of the box is generally that of the default gateway.
The following table gives the default IP addresses of the most commonly used boxes.
The IP addresses of the computer, the recorder and the box must all be in the same subnetwork.
Example 1: The IP address of the computer is 192.168.1.179 The subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 The IP address of the box (generally the same as the IP address of the default gateway) is 192.168.1.1 In this case, it is not necessary to change the IP address of the recorder, which is 192.168.1.108 by default
Example 2: The IP address of the computer is 192.168.0.179 The subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 The default gateway is 192.168.0.254 In this case, the IP address of the recorder must be changed, otherwise it will not be able to communicate on the network.
The IP address to be given to the recorder: - Must be between 192.168.0.1 and 192.168.0.254. - Must not be used by any other device on the network (in this example, do not use 192.168.0.179 and 192.168.0.254 which are the IP addresses of the computer and the box respectively). For this it may be useful to list the addresses already taken on the network (see the Quick VMS tool on the mini CD-ROM) In this example, the IP address for the recorder can therefore be 192.168.0.108.

4.7.4 Remote connection
To connect to the recorder from a computer on the local area network, follow the instructions in Sections 4.7.1 to 4.7.3.
To connect to the recorder from a computer that is not on the local area network, you must first connect to the external IP address of the router. To do this, you must obtain the following information from the internet service provider (ISP):
- Type of IP address (static or dynamic).
- If the IP address is dynamic, whether it is possible to obtain a static IP address. If it is, request one.
If the IP address is static, go to Section 4.7.4.2.
If the IP address is dynamic and it is not possible to obtain a static address, the access must be configured with a dynamic DNS account.
The modem routers provided by telephone operators, often referred to as “Boxes”, are the exclusive property of the operators. They may be updated or reconfigured at any time, which may change or delete the configurations previously set by the customer.

4.7.4.2 Configuring port redirection (configuring NAT)
The recorder uses three ports:
- 80 for the HTTP port - 37777 for the Media/Mobile 1 port - 37778 for the Mobile 2 port
If necessary these ports can be modified. The ports must be redirected (NAT configuration) for remote access:
Method 1: Automatic configuration (with UPnP)
The UPnP IGD can be used to configure port redirection automatically.
Step 1-1: Open the router configuration menu by entering its IP address in the web browser’s address bar.
Step 1-2: Refer to the router’s user manual for how to configure the UPnP IGD.
Step 1-3: Activate UPnP for the recorder in the “Network” menu by selecting “Enable” in the UPNP dropdown menu.
Step 1-4: Save and right-click to exit the main menu
Step 1-5: Check that the ports are routed, either on the router or by testing the remote connection.

Example for a Livebox play router: - Activate the UPnP IGD by checking the “UPnP IGD” box then clicking on the “Refresh” button.
Method 2: Manual configuration
Step 2-1: Open the router configuration menu by entering its IP address in the web browser’s address bar.
Step 2-2: Refer to the router’s user manual for how to configure port redirection manually.
Step 2-3: Check that the ports are routed, either on the router or by testing the remote connection.
Example for a Livebox play router:
- Enter the internal port number in the “Internal Port” column. - Select “TCP” in the “Protocol” dropdown menu. - Check the box in the“ Enable” column.
- Click on the “Save” button to confirm and save the configurations.

Example for access to two recorders connected on the same router:
When two recorders are connected on the same router, you need to be able to differentiate between them by assigning them different http and media ports. A redirecting rule must therefore be created:
- For recorder no. 1: Port 10080 to 192.168.64.201:80 Port 37777 to 192.168.64.201:37777 Port 37778 to 192.168.64.201:37778
- For recorder no. 2: Port 10081 to 192.168.64.202:80 Port 37779 to 192.168.64.202:37779 Port 37780 to 192.168.64.202:37780
4.7.4.3 Connection with a computer
Example 1: Static IP address
Example with recorder no. 1 from the previous example:
- IP address of recorder no. 1: 192.168.64.201 - External IP address of the router: 83.173.68.59 - HTTP port: 10080
Enter the external IP address of the router followed by the http port in the web browser’s address bar: http://83.173.68.59:10080. Example 2: Dynamic IP address
Example with recorder no. 1 from the previous example:
- IP address of recorder no. 1: 192.168.64.201 - Name of the No-IP server host: dvr4ch8ch.no-ip.biz - HTTP port: 10080 Enter the host name followed by the DNS server followed by the http port in the web browser’s address bar: http://dvr4ch8ch.no-ip.biz:10080.
