The Default port is 21. To connect to an FTP sever, it is recommended that you
do not change the port number unless your camera is behind a router. If your
camera is behind a router, you can assign any port number to this eld, but you
must enable port forwarding on the router. Please refer to your router manual
for more information on port forwarding.
If you are going to upload snapshots to an FTP server, you will need to ll in the
Domain name or IP address of your external FTP server such as ftp://dlink.com
or ftp://123.123.123.1. (The server name and IP address will vary depending on
the user.) The following user settings must be correctly congured for remote
access.
Specify the user name to access the external FTP server (ex. John Smith).
Specify the password to access the external FTP server (ex. 12345).
Specify the destination folder in the external FTP server (ex. snapshot).
Passive mode will allow access to an external FTP server if your camera is behind a router protected by a rewall.
Specify the Domain name or IP address of your second external FTP server. This eld is optional if you have already
lled in the information for the rst FTP server.
Specify the user name to access your backup FTP server.
