2.2 Hosts and Groups
You need to create hosts and groups before starting the services. To create hosts, you can
use the Search Host function (No. 3, Figure 1-2) to detect GV devices and compatible
third-party IP devices on the same LAN and add them to the Host List, or you can follow the
steps in the following section.
Note:
1. To use the Search Host function to locate GV devices, it is required to open TCP port
5201 on the client DVR, TCP port 5202 on the Video Server and Compact DVR, and
UDP port 5200 on the Control Center.
2. If antivirus software is installed, the Search Host function may be interfered and will not
detect the available hosts. In this case, turn off the antivirus software and try again.
2.2.1 Creating a Host
You can create a host of the DVR, Compact DVR, Video Server, IP Camera, I/O Box and
Recording Server. The Host Settings dialog box may look different among these devices.
The following steps are an example of adding an IP camera host.
1. On the Host List window, click the Add Host button (No. 3, Figure 1-3) and select Add IP
Camera. This dialog box appears.
