2 Accessing the Network Camera
This chapter explains how to access the network camera through web browsers and RTSP players.
2.1 Access the Camera in LAN
This camera support HTTP and HTTPS protocols, so here will allow you to use HTTP and HTTPS port No.
(1) Http:// LAN IP + Http Port No.
Double click the IP Camera Tool icon and it should find the camera’s IP address automatically after you plug in the
network cable.
Figure 2.1
Double click the IP address of the camera; your default browser will open to the camera login page.
(2) Https:// LAN IP + Https Port no.
The default Https port no. is 443. You can use the url to access the camera: https:// LAN IP + HTTPS port.
Go to Settings - Network - Port panel , you can see and change the https port no.
Figure 2.2
HTTPS(Hypertext Transfer Protocol over Secure Socket Layer) is a safe way to access your camera, the data transferred
on the Internet will be encrypted. Since we can not apply license for every LAN or DDNS URL, the webpage may pop
up a warning like the following picture, you just need to click 'Continue to this website (not recommended). '

2.2.1 Static IP Addresses
Users who have static IP addresses do not need to set DDNS service settings for remote access. When you have finished
connecting the camera using the LAN IP address and port forwarding, you can access the camera directly from the
Internet using the WAN IP address and port number.
How to Obtain the WAN IP address from a public website ?
To obtain your WAN IP address, enter the following URL in your browser: http://www.whatismyip.com.The webpage
at this address will show you the current WAN IP.
Enter the camera’s url , here
take https://192.168.8.129:443
for example .
Click this button to add it .

Figure 2.7
Access your IP Camera from the Internet
You can access the IP Camera from the Internet (remote access). Enter the WAN IP address and port number in your
standard browser. For example, you would enter http:// 183.37.28.254:85
NOTE :
Make sure port forwarding is successful. You can do port forwarding two ways.
1. Login to your router to enable the “UPNP” function. You can then login to the camera as administrator, choose
Network, and then choose UPnP to enable UPnP. Make sure that the status of UPnP reads “UPnP Successful” on the
Device Status page.
2. Do port (HTTP port) forwarding manually. (See Figure 2.11 for further details)
If your router has a Virtual Server, it can do port forwarding. Add the camera’s LAN IP and port which you had set
earlier to your router’s port forwarding settings.
NOTE: If you plug the camera into a router, it will have a dynamic IP address and you need to set DDNS service
settings to view it remotely.
Step 1: Enter the username and password of the Administrator (default username is admin with a blank password), and
click “OK” to apply changes.
Step 2: Wait around 10 seconds, you’ll see that the camera’s LAN IP address has changed. In our example it was
changed to 2000, so we see http://192.168.8.102:2000 in IP Camera Tool. Also, the LAN IP address is now fixed at a
static IP address of http://192.168.8.102:2000. This IP address will not change even if the camera is powered off and
back on, the camera will remain on this LAN IP address. This is very important that a static LAN IP address is set, or
you may have problems later with remote access and seeing the camera remotely if the camera loses power and
reconnects on a different LAN IP address. Make sure you set a static LAN IP address!

2.2.2 Dynamic IP Addresses
DDNS is a service that allows your IP Camera, especially when assigned with a dynamic IP address, to have a fixed host
and domain name. This means that even though your WAN IP address is constantly changing, you will have a fixed
hostname you can use to access your cameras at all times. You can access the camera directly from the Internet using the
hostname and port number.
What is the HTTP Port no.?
1) Default HTTP Port is 88
All cameras have the default HTTP port of 88. For example, if the LAN IP link of the camera is http://192.168.8.102:88,
this means that the camera’s HTTP port is 88. You can change port 88 to another port if you’d like such as 2000 or 8090,
which will not be conflict with other existing ports like 25, 21,10000.Here you can set the port no. between 1 and 65535.
2) Change the default http no.88 to another one.
How to assign a different HTTP Port No. and fixed the LAN IP of the camera by the IP Camera
Tool？
Step 1: Open the IP Camera Tool, select the camera you would like to change the port of, right click on the IP address,
and click on ”Network Configuration”, this brings up the network configuration box as shown in Figure 2.8 and 2.9.
Figure 2.8
Figure 2.9
Select which camera
you’d like to change the
port for, and right click .

Enter the Username and
password, click OK .

What is Port forwarding?
If you have never done port forwarding before, you can open and view the following link to understand the basic concept.
Port forwarding allows for outside connections to access a specific device on your network from anywhere in the world.
Every router automatically blocks any incoming connections for safety purposes. Using port forwarding, you are telling
your router to allow a connection through a certain port (you can think of it as a gateway) into your router. You set this
port to a specific device, in our case an IP Camera, so it can be accessed from anywhere in the world.
Click this link to learn more about port forwarding: http://portforward.com/help/portforwarding.htm
How do we configure Port Forwarding ?
For this section, we will be using an example:
Let’s say the camera’s LAN IP address is http://192.168.8.100:2000
Step 1: Login to the router, and go to your router’s port forwarding or port triggering menu. Sometimes this is also under
the name of Virtual Server or NAT.
Using the Linksys brand router as an example, we would log into the router, and go to the Applications & Gaming
menu. We would then click on the “Single Port Forwarding” sub-menu.
Step 2: Create a new column using the LAN IP address & HTTP Port of the camera within the router as shown below,
then push OK or Submit to save your settings:
Figure 2.11
First method :
Use the embedded DDNS to access the camera via the Internet
Each Foscam camera has an embedded unique DDNS domain name, the format of this domain name is
Fill the HTTP Port of the
camera in the columns of
External Port and Internal
Port. Example: 2000
Fill in this section with the
LAN IP of the camera; we
would enter “100” for our
example.
Assign a name for the port
forward setting here .

xxxxxx.myfoscam.org. On the bottom of the camera, you can see the domain name sticker with this information on it.
For example, we can use cp4911.myfoscam.org. In the camera, click Settings at the top, click “Network” on the left,
then click “DDNS” to get to the DDNS settings page. Here you can see the unique domain name of your camera.
Figure 2.12
Now you can use “http://Domain name + HTTP Port” to access the camera via the Internet.
Take hostname cp4911.myfoscam.org and HTTP Port of 2000 for example, the URL link to access the camera via the
Internet would be http:// test09.myfoscam.org:2000.
Second method :
Use the Third party DDNS to access the camera via the Internet
Step 1, Please go to the third party DDNS website(such as www.no-ip.com) to create a free hostname.
Step 2, DO DDNS Service Settings within the Camera
Please set DDNS Settings within the camera by hostname, a user name and password you’ve got from www.no-ip.com
Take hostname ycxgwp.no-ip.info, user name foscam, password foscam2012 for example.
Firstly, goes to option of DDNS Settings on the administrator panel.
Secondly, select No-Ip as a server.
Thirdly, fill foscam as DDNS user, fill password foscam2012 as DDNS password, fill ycxgwp.no-ip.info as DDNS
domain and server URL, Then click save to make effect. The camera will restart and to take the DDNS settings effective.
Fourthly, after the restart, login the camera, and go to option of Device Status on the administrator panel, and check if
the DDNS status is successful.
If failed, please double check if you have input the correct hostname, user name, and password, and try to redo
the settings.
NOTE :
If you have set Third Party DDNS successfully ,the Foscam Domain Name will be invalid. The Third Party DDNS and
the Foscam Domain Name cannot work at the same time, the last time you configured will take effect.
