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 the Equipment Search 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.

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:
Modify the Http Port.
Enter the Username and
password, click OK.

First method :
Use the embedded DDNS to access the camera via the Internet
Each camera has an embedded unique DDNS domain name, the format of this domain name is
xxxxxx.myipcamera.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.myipcamera.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 2.11
Now you can use “http://Domain name + HTTP Port” to access the camera via the Internet.
Take hostname cp4911.myipcamera.org and HTTP Port of 2000 for example, the URL link to access the
camera via the Internet would be http:// cp4911.myipcamera.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.
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 .

User
User Manual Manual

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 test, password test2012 for example.
Firstly, goes to option of DDNS Settings on the administrator panel.
Secondly, select No-Ip as a server.
Thirdly, fill test as DDNS user, fill password test2012 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 IPCAM Domain Name will be invalid. The Third Party
DDNS and the IPCAM Domain Name cannot work at the same time, the last time you configured will take
effect.
