11. Network Configuration

Configuring the network is dependent on how an IP address is assigned in Ethernet-based environment, which is static IP, dynamic IP (DHCP), or PPPoE.

Network Configuration
This category shows the detailed method for network system.
» Network Configuration	Configuration of Network(IP,Netmask,DNS).
» Network Ports	Modification of HTTP and other application network port numbers.
» Bandwidth Control	Configuration of bandwidth control.
» View Network Status	View of Network Status.
» Network Status Notify	It sends IP address by e-mail when IP address is allocated by DHCP(or PPPoE).
» IP-CCTV DNSTM	Configuration of dynamic IP registration of Network Video System.
» Port Forwarding & UPnP	Configuration of Port Forwarding & UPnP(Universal Plug and Play).
» RTP/RTSP	Configuration of RTP/RTSP.

11.1. Static IP Configuration

Select Network Configuration under Network configuration

For static IP, select Static IP and input IP address, NetMask, Gateway, DNS1, DNS2 and click apply to save settings. After apply, program will ask to close web browser for updates, which will take 20\~30 seconds. If Back button is clicked all values will be discarded. If Refresh button is clicked, the program will load previous values.

11.2. DHCP Client Configuration

To use DHCP a DHCP server must exist in the network environment. Select DHCP Client from Network Configuration, click Apply. And all information needed will be filled in automatically

11.3. PPPoE Configuration

PPPoE is used to connect VITEK products to a PPPoE modem provided by the ISP. Since PPPoE needs verification, ID and a password are necessary to access the network. Type in PPPoE user ID and password

11.4. Network Ports

In this configuration, you set up the HTTP port for VITEK cameras to communicate with the Client PC. HTTP Port is the network port that is used when a Client PC connects to the VITEK camera Web page. It can be assigned between 80 and 65535. The default value is 80.

Note: If the HTTP port number is changed to a different value than default (80), make sure the new HTTP port number goes together with the VITEK cameras IP address. For example, when a VITEK cameras IP address is 192.168.1.100 and the HTTP port is 8080, you will have to enter http://192.168.1.100:8080 to connect to the camera.

11.5. Bandwidth Control Configuration

Bandwidth control is for limiting maximum network traffic. If it is enabled with Bandwidth limits, maximum data size transferred from VITEK cameras won't exceed bandwidth limits set by users. If transferred data is exceeded, part of the data will be randomly lost.

If multiple users try to access a VITEK camera when bandwidth control is enabled, users connected to the VITEK camera will share network bandwidth limit.

Bandwidth Control Configuration

Notice The bandwidth limit should be over 32. MPEG-4 or H.264 streaming can be affected by this setting.

Note: This bandwidth control feature works well in M-JPEG video transmission. But, for H.264, dropping data packets may cause low quality of video, so it is recommended to utilize CBR and frame rate control instead of bandwidth control for H.264 video. Refer to Section 15.2 Camera & Motion on page 53 For more info on CBR and Frame rate

Note: Network Bandwidth control is managed by the VITEK camera and it drops any data packets if required, thus you may experience slow connection when this feature is enabled.

11.6. View Network Status

This menu shows network status of VITEK cameras.

11.7. Network Status Notify

If you click Confirm button, you can verify registered URL on IP-CCTV DNS.

If product is not registered on IP-CCTV DNS, you can not verify registered URL.

11.9. Port Forwarding & UPnP

UPnP(Universal Plug and Play)is a kind of network protocol to help users to find and configure network products in the same local network area. Port forwarding is to assign a certain network port to a network product so users can access it from outside of the Local Area Network. Generally, port forwarding can be configured from the network router.

UPnP port forwarding is made up with finding an available network port, assigning it to a VITEK camera and reporting overall network configuration of a VITEK camera to IP-CCTV DNS server. Users have to register products into IPCCTVDNS server and IP-CCTV DNS service should be enabled.

There are 3 options in UPnP Port Forwarding.

• Manual: User Assigned Port issued when users can access network router (hub) and manually assign available network ports to VITEK cameras. In this case, users have to type already-assigned network ports under User Assigned port.
• UPnP: User Assigned Port is used when users want VITEK cameras to configure port forwarding of network hub with user-assigned network port. If it fails, try to change user-assigned port
• UPnP: Auto Selected Port is used to let VITEK cameras deal with all network configurations automatically.

Please note that the network router needs to support UPnP Port Forwarding. There is a limit for the maximum number of UPnP devices. If it is properly configured, results will be displayed under UPnP status.

Port Forwarding & UPnP

UPnP Status

Notice : User's assigned port is the external port number of dynamic IP address. This function is quite unique when UPnP IP sharer or router are used together. If Uppn service is not activated by UPnP : User Assigned port, allocate another port.

11.10. RTP/ RTSP Setup

Factory default is Enable to be used with other manufactures VMS software's

RTSP (Real-Time Streaming Protocol) is a protocol to transfer video and audio streams over the network. Any application supporting Standard RTSP can be used for VITEK cameras. Quick Time Player or VLC program can be used with this; it may not be supported in the environment within a firewall. There are two types of usage; one for Unicast address condition and the other for Multicast address condition.

For Unicast Address:

Use "rtsp://network video server ip address/ cam0_0". If there are multiple channels, use cam0_x, x (0\~3) with each number applied. If there are multiple modules, use camx_0 x (0 \~ 3) with each module number applied.

For Multicast Address:

Use "rtsp://network video server ip address/mcam0_0". If there are multiple channels, use mcam0_x, x (0\~3) with each channel number applied. If there are multiple modules, use mcamx_0 x (0\~3) with each module number applied.

Click Camera & Motion on Device Configuration menu. The configuration menu will be displayed, and it may be different between VITEK cameras.

• M-JPEG: This format requires much higher network bandwidth than H.264 compression. But because of its higher quality of still image, it is adequate for detailed reviewing of stored video.
• H.264: In this format, each frame data is related to other nearby frames. For this reason, it provides much higher compression ratio than M-JPEG and is adequate for video transfer. However, if network conditions are limited dropped frames in video data is possible, the video quality can be relatively low. With VITEK Cameras, you can set the number of P-frames in the video which is independent still images between I-frames.

Note: For Dual Stream products, most of the parameters are dependent on primary stream value.
