attempts to configure port mapping in a NAT router on your network, using UPnP. Note
that UPnP must be enabled in the network camera (see System>Network>UPnP).
Enter a NAT router and enter the external port number for the router in the field provided.
If you enter o in those fields, the network camera automatically searches for NAT
routers on your network.
Notes:
- If you attempt to manually enter a port that is already in use, an alert message will be
displayed.
- When the port is selected automatically it is displayed in this field. To change this enter a
new port number and click Save.
When the settings are complete, click Save, or click Reset to revert to previously saved settings.
 Zeroconfig
Zeroconfig allows the network camera to create and assign IP address for network cameras and
connect to a network automatically.
Zero configuration networking (zeroconf), is a set of techniques that automatically creates a usable
Internet Protocol (IP) network without manual operator intervention or special configuration servers.
Zero configuration networking allows devices such as computers and printers to connect to a network
automatically. Without zeroconf, a network administrator must set up services, such as Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and Domain Name System (DNS), or configure each computer
's
network
settings manually, which may be difficult and time-consuming.
