2.2 UPnP of Windows® XP, Vista or 7

UPnP™ is short for Universal Plug and Play, which is a networking architecture that provides compatibility among networking equipment, software, and peripherals. This device is an UPnP enabled device. If the operating system, Windows XP, Vista or 7, of your PC is UPnP enabled, the Network Camera will be very easy to be found.

Please refer to Appendix J to enable UPnP settings only if your operating system of PC is running Windows XP.

Note

: Windows 2000 does not support UPnP feature.

To discover your device, go to your Desktop and click My Network Places.

2. Preparation

Click the targeted Device. Then Internet Explorer will connect to this Network Camera automatically.

2.3 Install the Device behind a NAT Router

Once installed, the device is accessible on your LAN. To access the device from the

Internet, you must configure your broadband router to allow incoming data traffic to the device. If the device is installed on the LAN with a router, then it may get a dynamic IP address from the DHCP server. However, if the device wants to be accessed from the

WAN, its IP address needs to be setup as fixed IP, also the port forwarding or Virtual

Server function of router needs to be setup.

However, if your NAT router supports UPnP feature, it can be very easy to achieve NAT traversal automatically. To do this, enable the NAT-traversal feature, which will attempt to automatically configure the router to allow access to the camera.

Installing the device with an UPnP router on your network is an easy 3-step procedure:

　

(1) Enable UPnP option of your NAT router

　

(2) Enable UPnP NAT traversal option of the Network Ca mera (default)

　

(3) Access your Network Camera by DIPS
