Video Server Ethernet Cable This device supports Auto-MDI/MDIX, PC IP Address: 192.168.1.210 you can use a straight or cross-over IP Address: 192.168.1.2 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 cable to connect these two devices. Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.
Connects to an Exist LAN If the video server will be used in a local network (LAN) and don’t allow to access via Internet, please refer to the figure below for the connection. Intranet (LAN) Video Server 1 IP Address: 192.168.1.210 Switch Router or IP Sharing Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 IP Address: 192.168.1.254 Gateway: 192.168.1.254 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Http Port: 80 RTSP Port: 554 Video Server 2 PC IP Address: 192.168.1.211 IP Address: 192.168.1.2 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.
B. Internet Only Connects to ADSL with Fixed Public IP Address If the video server connects to Internet with an ADSL modem and the public IP address of ADSL is fixed, please refer to the figure below for the connection. Internet (WAN) Video Server PC 3G Mobile Phone IP Address: 60.220.20.250 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Gateway: 60.220.20.254 Http Port: 80 RTSP Port: 554 ADSL Connect the video server to the ADSL modem.
Connects to ADSL with Floating Public IP Address (PPPoE) If the video server connects to Internet with an ADSL modem and the public IP address of ADSL is variable, the video server can use PPPoE function for the connection. Internet (WAN) Video Server PC 3G Mobile Phone Configure the PPPoE Setting ADSL Connect the video server to the ADSL modem. Refer to Configuration Network PPPoE page to configure the PPPoE settings.
After enable the DDNS, assume the registered URL is “test.dyndns.org”, now the video server can be linked with following URLs: Client PC Link Address Remark http://test.dyndns.org With audio: 3G Mobile rtsp://test.dyndns.org/3g Phone Without audio: rtsp://test.dyndns.
C. Intranet + Internet Connects to Internet with Fixed Public IP Address If the video server will be added into a local network (LAN), and will be accessed via both Intranet and Internet, please refer to the figure below for the connection. Intranet (LAN) Internet (WAN) PC1 PC2 3G Mobile Phone IP Address: 192.168.1.2 Video Server 1 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Gateway: 192.168.1.254 IP Address: 192.168.1.210 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Gateway: 192.168.1.
Set Subnet Mask of Router, PC and video servers. Set Gateway of PC and video servers with the same IP address. The Gateway is the IP address of router. Set the IP address of a valid DNS into video servers. An invalid DNS will cause the domain name can’t be resolved and reached, such as email address. Configure the video servers with different RTSP port. Ex. assign Video Server1 with port 554, and assign Video Server2 with port 555.
