2. In this example, the Local Area Network (LAN) IP address of your network
camera is 192.168.0.3. Please forward the following ports for the network
camera on the router.

If you have changed the port numbers on the Network page, please open the
ports accordingly on your router. For information on how to forward ports on
the router, please refer to the user’s manual of your router.
