features, and control network bandwidth use.
IP Address
•Type: Select the type of network you are using. If
this option has been changed, Remote Setup will
terminate after applying the current settings.
- Manual: Select if using a static IP. You will then be
able to congure the related settings manually.

automatically.
•DNS Server: Enter the DNS server's IP address. By
using the DNS server, you will be able to use domain
names instead of IP addresses when conguring the
FEN, time, or SMTP server. If the camera is connected
to the network via DHCP, select the From DHCP
option to retrieve the DNS server's IP address from the
DHCP server automatically. The updated address will
be displayed upon the subsequent connection.
•Contact your network administrator for more
information on the camera's network connection
type, the DNS server's IP address, and other related
information.
•If using DHCP or ADSL, the camera's IP address may
change from time to time. We therefore recommend
that you use the FEN feature.
FEN
Select Use FEN to enable the FEN feature.
•FEN Server: Enter the FEN Server's IP address or
domain name.
•Port: Enter the FEN Server's port number.
•Use NAT: Select if the camera is connected to the
network via a router.

to the FEN Server. Click OK to check the name's
availability.

Part 3 - Remote Setup
19
•Help Desk: Change the settings and then click OK to
register the entered FEN name to the FEN Server. If all
the settings have been congured correctly, the FEN
Server's help desk information will be shown in the
Help Desk elds next time you enter the FEN setup
screen.
•Use FEN is a feature that allows you to register a
unique name for a camera that utilizes a dynamic
IP address to the FEN Server and connect to the
camera using the registered name instead of an IP
address, which can change from time to time. In
order to use this feature, you must rst register a
FEN name to the FEN Server.
•If network settings have been changed, click OK
at the bottom of the setup window to save the
changes and then setup the FEN.
•Inquire with your network administrator for the FEN
Server's IP address or domain name. If a DNS server
has been congured under Network setup, you can
enter the FEN Server's domain name instead of its IP
address for the FEN Server setting.
•If using an IP router (or NAT), port conguration and
other network functions will depend on the usage
method of the IP router (or NAT).
•You will not be able to save FEN settings unless
you click on the OK button next to the FEN Name
eld and check the entered name's availability.
In addition, you will be prompted with an error
message if you do not enter a FEN name or enter
a name already registered to the FEN Server. If the
FEN name contains the #, \, and/or % symbol, it
might not be able to connect to the camera from
the IDIS Web program.
The FEN Server operated by IDIS is a service to its
clients and may go oine without notice for server
update purposes or due to an unexpected failure.
Port/QoS
•Use/Port: Enable/disable ports and designate
corresponding port numbers. Admin, Watch and
Record ports are enabled by default and cannot
be disabled. By enabling IDIS Web and RTSP ports,
you will be able to use the IDIS Web program or
a media player that supports RTSP (Real-Time
Streaming Protocol) service to connect to the camera.
If this option has been changed, Remote Setup
will terminate after applying the current settings.
(Applicable to Admin port number only.)
•DSCP: Designate each port's QoS (Quality of Service)
level using DSCP values. Assigning QoS levels
prioritizes the ports for network bandwidth use.
Higher the DSCP value, higher the QoS level and thus
higher on the network bandwidth allocation priority
list. Use 0if you do not want to assign a QoS level. The
network environment must support DSCP in order
for this feature to function properly. Contact your
network administrator for more details.
•Use HTTPS: Select this option to apply https protocol-
based security on IDIS Web.

Part 3 - Remote Setup
20
•Use UPnP: If the camera is connected to the network
via an IP router (or NAT), select this option to connect
to the camera without setting up port forwarding.
The IP router (or NAT) must be enabled with UPnP in
order for this feature to function properly. For more
information enabling UPnP on your IP router (or NAT),
refer to the IP router or NAT's operation manual.
Click Check to test the current port settings.
A conrmation message will appear if all the
selected ports are available for use. If not, a list of
recommended port numbers will be shown.
Click Apply to use the recommended port numbers.
•Each port number must be unique. Otherwise, you
will not be able to connect to the camera from the
remote program.
•You can connect to the camera using a media player
that supports RTSP service and monitor its video
feed. If the camera is connected to the network via
an IP router (or NAT) or is behind a rewall, you must
open the ports. (All ports if using UDP protocol and
RTSP ports if using TCP protocol) This feature may
not be supported by al media player. In addition,
video display on certain media players may not be
