2. Select the Advanced tab.
3. Click the Set butt next to Host/Others to enter the Host/Others menu, as shown in Figure 9.

4. Enter Alarm Host IP and Alarm Host Port. Alarm Host IP is the IP of the remote PC which has
the Network Video Surveillance software installed. The Alarm Host Port must be the same as
software’s alarm monitor port (default port is 7200).
Configuring Multicast
Setting up multicasting solves limitation issues when streaming videos through a network access device. A
multicast address spans the Class-D IP range of 224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255. It is recommended to use the IP
address range from 239.252.0.0 to 239.255.255.255.
To set up multicast:
1. Click Menu > Settings > Network to enter the Network Settings menu.
2. Select the Advanced tab.
3. Click the Set button next to Host/Others to enter the Host/Others menu.
4. Set Multicast IP, as shown in Figure 10. When adding a device to the Network Video
Surveillance software, the multicast address must be the same with the DVR’s multicast IP.
