Accessing the Web User Interface Remotely
For the purposes of this guide, we will outline the most common method for setting up web
access. Port forwarding using the HTTP protocol and using Dynamic Domain Name Server
(DDNS) is the easiest way to setup stable remote access.
For this method, you should have direct access to your router as well as the ability to port
forward the device using the router’s built in interface.
Below is a step-by-step walk through that details how to setup the NVR for remote web access
using DDNS.
1. Log into the web UI and go to Management>>Network>>Connection. In the Connection tab,
note the HTTP Port information for your NVR.
It is recommended to ensure the port number is at least 5 digits long to prevent any port conflicts.
You can change the port to any 5-digit number that is less than 65535 (e.g. 12345) by clicking
the number field and entering a new port number. Write it down, then click Save.
2. The system will need to reboot for this change to take effect. Click OK.
3. Once the NVR has come back online, log back into the web UI and navigate back to the
Connection menu to verify the HTTP port has been updated properly.
