Page 68: Configuring The Dcs-5222L With A Router
DCS-5222L, follow the steps outlined in the Quick Installation Guide. After you have completed the setup of the DCS-5222L outlined in the Quick Installation Guide you will have an operating camera that has an assigned IP Address. Because you are using a router to share the Internet with one or more PCs, the IP Address assigned to the Network Camera will be a local IP Address. - Page 69 1. Assign a Local IP Address to Your Camera Run the setup wizard for the DCS-5222L. Follow the steps in the Quick Install Guide to configure the DCS-5222L. The camera will be assigned a local IP Address that allows it to be recognized by the router. Write down this IP Address for future reference.
- Page 70 The Setup > Network page displays the port settings for your camera. If necessary, these ports can be changed if they are already in use by other devices (e.g. in a multiple camera environment). Note: Both the HTTP port and RTSP port are required to be opened for the DCS-5222L. D-Link DCS-5222L User Manual...
- Page 71 Router Set-Up and Installation The following steps generally apply to any router that you have on your network. The D-Link DIR-655 is used as an example to clarify the configuration process. Refer to the router’s user manual for more information on router operation and configuration.
- Page 72 The firewall security features built into the DIR-655 router prevent users from accessing the video from the DCS-5222L over the Internet. The router connects to the Internet over a series of numbered ports. The ports normally used by the DCS-5222L are blocked from access over the Internet.
- Page 73 800. Not all routers are the same, so refer to your user manual for specific instructions on how to open ports. Enter valid ports in the Virtual Server section of your router.
