Once you have installed the Network Camera well and powered it on, the
network accessing type LED will turn on. It means the system is booting up
successfully. Furthermore, if you have a proper network connection, and
access to the Network Camera, the LED will flash green under wired mode.
When you installed the Camera on a LAN environment, you have two easy
ways to search your Cameras by IPWizard II or UPnP™ discovery. Here is the
way to execute IPWizard II to discover Camera’s IP address and set up related
parameter in a Camera.

2.4 UPnP for Windows
UPnP™ is short for Universal Plug and Play, which is a networking
architecture that provides compatibility among networking equipment, software,
and peripherals. This device is an UPnP enabled device. If the operating
system, Windows XP, Vista or 7, of your PC is UPnP enabled, the Network
Camera will be very easy to be found.
Please refer to Appendix I to enable UPnP settings only if your operating
system of PC is running Windows XP.
Note: Windows 2000 does not support UPnP feature.

To discover your device, go to your Desktop and click My Network Places.
Click the targeted Device. Then Internet Explorer will connect to this Network
Camera automatically.
2.5 Install the IP Camera behind NAT router
Once installed, the device is accessible on your LAN. To access the device
from the Internet you must configure your broadband router to allow incoming
data traffic to the device. If the device is installed on the LAN with a router,
then it may get a dynamic IP address from the DHCP server. However, if the
device wants to be accessed from the WAN, its IP address needs to be setup
as fixed IP, also the port forwarding or Virtual Server function of router needs
to be setup.
However, if your NAT router supports UPnP feature, it can be very easy to
achieve NAT traversal automatically. To do this, enable the NAT-traversal
feature, which will attempt to automatically configure the router to allow access
to the camera.
Installing the device with an UPnP router on your network is an easy 3–step
procedure:
(1) Enable UPnP option of your NAT router
(2) Enable UPnP NAT traversal option of the Network Camera (default)
(3) Access your Network Camera by DIPS

User’s Manual
(1) Enable UPnP option of your NAT router
To use UPnP IGD function (NAT traversal), you need to make sure the
UPnP function is enabled in your router. Most new home routers should
support this function. Some of routers are default enable and others are
not. Please check user’s manual of your NAT router for detail.
(2) Enable UPnP NAT traversal option of the Network Camera
Refer to Setting ÎNetwork ÎUPnP page for detail NAT traversal
setting. Note that this option is default enabled.
(3) Access your Network Camera by DIPS
Refer to Setting ÎSystem ÎSystem page for detail DIPS information.
