(InternetServiceProvider)foryourDVR.TheGatewayaddressistheIPaddressofyourbroadbandmodem.
2.2.2UsingaDynamicIPAddress
YoucanusearouterwithyourDynamicIPbroadbandmodem.Inthiscase,youshouldsettheconfiguration
ofarouterproperlyfornetworkconnectionbetweenDVRandNet/WebViewer.Pleasefollowthe
instructionsinnextsectiontoconfigureyourroutercorrectly.
IfyourBroadbandModemdoesnotsupportinternalloopback(portforwarding)functionand
youwanttomonitorDVRusingaPClocatedinsameIntranet,youshoulduseDirectIPinstead
ofDDVRLSintheconnectionmenuofNetViewer.IfyourPCislocatedoutsideofIntranet,you
canusebothDDVRLSandDirectIPtoconnecttoDVReventhoughyourBroadbandModemhas
limitedfeatures.YouwillknowaboutDDVRLSandDirectIPinChapter7,NVR(NETVIEWER).

2.2.3.RouterConfiguration
IfyourDVRisconnectedtothenetworkthrougharouter,youshouldconfigurerouterproperly.
Thereare3stepsasfollows.
1.WANSetting2.DHCPSetting3.VirtualServer Setting
2.2.3.1.WANSetting
WhenyouconnecttoyourRouter,
youcanfindmenuforWANsetting.
PleaseconfirmtheWANsetting.If
youareusingDSLservice,you
shouldselectPPPoE,andyouwillbe
directedtoasub‐menutotypein
DSLusernameandpassword.
2.2.3.2.DHCP&IPAddressSetting
ToassignanuniqueprivateIPaddress
toDVRinyourintranetenvironment
automatically,youcanenableDHCP
optionintheNetworkSetupmenuof
yourDVRandyourRouter.Inthis
case,youcanskiptheprocedures
describedonthispage.
WerecommendassigningIPaddress
toDVRmanuallytoprevent
unexpectedchangeofIPaddress.
IfyouhaveanyproblemwithDHCPfunctionorwanttoassignthe privateIPaddress,pleasedisable
DHCPoptionintheNetworkSetupmenuofyourDVRandcheckthestartingandendingIPusedbyDHCP
serveroftheRouter.YoucanassignanyprivateIPaddresstoyourDVRevenifitisoutoftheDHCP
range,buttheIPaddressshouldmatchwiththeoneenteredintheNetworkSetupmenuofyourDVR.
*ArouterfromD‐Linkisquotedasanexampleinthismanual.Theimagesofsetupmenuabovemaynotalwaysmatch
anotherrouter’ssetupmenu.

2.2.3.3.VirtualServerSetting
YoushouldregisteryourDVRasavirtualserver.PleaseentertheinformationintoIPaddressfield
oftherouter(e.g.192.168.0.110).YoucancheckanIPaddressofDVRbypressingInfo.keyonthe
frontpanelofyourDVR.
ProtocolTypeshouldbeTCP.Private/PublicPortnumbersshouldbethesamewiththePort
numbersassignedinDVR.Youcanchangeport numbersinNetworkSetupmenutoavoidconflict
withothernetworkservers.
YourDVRuses6portnumbersandthedefaultPortnumbersare9350~4and80.9350~4arefor
controllingthevideo,audioandcommandsof NetViewer,and80isforWebViewer.Youneedto
register6portnumbersintotherouterasnetworkservers. Pleasemakesure thatyourrouterdoes
notblockthoseportnumbers to/fromtheDVRwith filterandfirewall features.
