Configuring UPnP
The recorder supports UPnP (Universal Plug and Play). This feature lets the
recorder automatically configure its own port forwarding, if this feature is also
enabled in the router.
You can select one of two methods to set up UPnP:
Automatic mapped type: The recorder automatically uses the free ports
available that were set up in the Network Settings menu.
Manual mapped type: You enter the particular external port settings and IP
addresses required to connect to the desired router (see Figure 8 below).

To enable UPnP:
1. Connect the recorder to the router.
Note: The router must support UPnP and this option must be enabled.
2. From the menu toolbar, click Network Settings > UPnP.
3. Enable the option.
4. From Mapped Type, select Auto or Manual.
If Manual is selected, enter the external ports and IP addresses required.
5. Click Apply.
