Clicking the Apply button applies the recommended port
numbers.
NOTES:
Do NOT use the same port number for more than one function. If you do, the
camera cannot be connected with the remote programs.
You can access the camera and monitor live video images using media players, such
as VLC Player, supporting RTSP service. You should open all ports for UDP protocol or
an RTSP port for TCP protocol if the camera uses a NAT (Network Address Translation)
device for network connection or if the firewall is enabled. This function might not be
supported, depending on the type of media player, and some media players might
not play video properly depending on network conditions or compression or resolution
of images for streaming. You can access video as follows:
– Access from a PC: Start the media player and enter “rtsp://ID:Password@IP address:
RTSP port number/track ID=‘stream number’”
– Access from mobile devices: Start web browser on the mobile device and enter
“http://IP address:WebGuard port number/” (https instead of http if the Use HTTPS
box is checked). For this connection to work, the WebGuard and RTSP port numbers
must be set up properly.
CAUTIONS:
When changing the port settings, you must change the port settings on
remote programs too.
When using the HTTPS protocol, the ONVIF protocol might not work.
