16.8 Configure Ports
You can configure different types of ports to enable relevant functions.
Go to System > Network > Advanced > More Settings and configure port settings as needed.
Alarm Host IP/Port: With a remote alarm host configured, the device will send the alarm
event or exception message to the host when an alarm is triggered. The remote alarm host
must have the client management system (CMS) software installed.
The Alarm Host IP refers to the IP address of the remote PC on which the CMS software (e.g.,
iVMS-4200) is installed, and the Alarm Host Port (7200 by default) must be the same as the
alarm monitoring port configured in the software.
Server Port: Server port (8000 by default) should be configured for remote client software
access and its valid range is 2000 to 65535.
HTTP Port: HTTP port (80 by default) should be configured for remote web browser access.
Multicast IP: Multicast can be configured to enable live view for cameras that exceed the
maximum number allowed through network. A multicast IP address covers Class-D IP ranging
from 224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255 and it is recommended to use the IP address ranging from
239.252.0.0 to 239.255.255.255.
When adding a device to the CMS software, the multicast address must be the same as that of
the device.
RTSP Port: RTSP (Real Time Streaming Protocol) is a network control protocol designed for use
in entertainment and communications systems to control streaming media servers. The port is
554 by default.
