Appendix #5 - Network Connectivity Overview

The DVR can be remotely controlled using your existing network and the provided software.

1. Connect the DVR to the Router using an Ethernet Cable. Power the DVR on.
   NOTE: The DVR must be connected to the router prior to powering on the system. This allows the DVR to communicate on your network
2. Find the IP address of your DVR through the Menu System on the unit. See the Menu section of this manual for additional System Settings.
3. Set up a web account at http://lorexdns.net
4. Enable PORT FORWARDING on your Router.
5. Run the EXE file from the Software CD provided with your system. See the Software Section of this manual for details on Software setup.

IP & MAC Address (Step #2)

The IP & MAC Addresses are necessary for DDNS Setup (for remote access to the DVR).

Your IP address can also be found within your Router settings. Refer to your router user guide for further details.

Setting Up Your DDNS Account (Step #3)

Lorex offers a free DDNS service for use with your System. A DDNS account allows you to set up a web site address that points back to your Local Network. The following outlines how to set up your free DNS account.

1. Navigate to http://lorexdns.net
2. Select the Create Account option from the list on the left side of the screen.

Setting Up Your DDNS Account (cont'd.)

You will need this information for remote access to your System. Record YOUR information below:

User Name:

*Domain Name:

Password:

• Only the first part of the Domain Name is required for setup on the System. If the full Domain sent is tomsmith.strategicvista.net, the unit only requires that only tomsmith be entered.

Router Port Forwarding (Step #4)

You will need to enable port forwarding on your Router to allow for external communications with your Observation System for ports:

• PORT 8841

Computers, DVRs, and other devices inside your network can only communicate directly with each other within the internal network. Computers and systems outside your network cannot directly communicate with these devices. When a system on the internal network needs to send or receive information from a system outside the network (i.e. from the Internet), the information is sent to the Router.

NETWORK EXAMPLE

When a computer on the Internet needs to send data to your internal network, it sends this data to the external IP address of the Router. The Router then needs to decide where this data is to be sent to. This is where setting up Port Forwarding becomes important.

Port Forwarding tells the router which device on the internal network to send the data to. When you set up port forwarding on your Router, it takes the data from the external IP address:port number and sends that data to an internal IP address:port number (i.e. Router External IP 216.13.154.34:6100 to DVR Internal IP 192.168.0.103:8841).

The instructions found online in the Router Configuration Guides will assist you in the port forwarding configurations for a selection of different router models. Visit our Consumer Guides Support website at http://www.lorexctv.com/support for more details

DDNS Setup on the DVR (Step #5)

Once the DDNS settings have been configured online, the information must be entered on the DVR to allow for remote connection via the Software:
