8.2.2 Advanced
8.2.2.1 VLAN A virtual LAN (VLAN) is any broadcast domain that is partitioned
and isolated in a computer network at the data link layer (OSI layer 2). LAN
is an abbreviation of local area network. VLANs allow network administrators
to group hosts together even if the hosts are not on the same network switch.
This can greatly simplify network design and deployment, because VLAN
membership can be configured through software. Without VLANs, grouping hosts
according to their resource needs necessitates the labor of relocating nodes
or rewiring data links.
Note: About how to set up VLAN in switches, please refer to your switch user
manual.
63
8.2.2.2 PPPoE This camera supports the PPPoE auto dial-up function. The camera
gets a public IP address by ADSL dial-up after the camera is connected to a
modem. You need to configure the PPPoE parameters of the network camera.
Note: The obtained IP address is dynamically assigned via PPPoE, so the IP
address always changes after rebooting the camera. To solve the inconvenience
of the dynamic IP, you need to get a domain name from the DDNS provider (e.g.,
DynDns.com). The user name and password should be assigned by your ISP.
64
8.2.2.3 SNMP
You can set the SNMP function to get camera status, parameters and alarm
related information and manage the camera remotely when it is connected to the
network.
Before setting the SNMP, please download the SNMP software and manage to
receive the camera information via SNMP port. By setting the Trap Address, the
camera can send the alarm event and exception messages to the surveillance
center.

8.2.2.5 Bonjour Bonjour is based on Apple’s multicast DNS service. Bonjour
devices can automatically broadcast their service information and listen to
the service information of other devices. If you don’t know the camera
information, you can use the Bonjour service on the same LAN to search for
network camera devices and then to access the devices.
67
8.2.2.6 RTMP
Real-Time Messaging Protocol (RTMP) was initially a proprietary protocol for
streaming audio, video and data over the Internet, between a Flash player and
a server. RTMP is a TCP-based protocol which maintains persistent connections
and allows low-latency communication. It can realize the function of live
broadcast so that customers can log in to the camera wherever there is a
network.
Note:
Server Address in Network Camera RTMP interface needs to be filled with the format: rtmp://< Server URL >/< Stream key >. Remember it needs ‘/’to connect between < Server URL > and < Stream key >.

8.2.2.7 SIP The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is a signaling
communications protocol, widely used for controlling multimedia communication
sessions such as voice and video calls over Internet Protocol (IP) networks.
This page allows user to configure SIP related parameters. The camera can be
configured as SIP endpoint to call out when alarm triggered; or allow
permitted number to call in to check the video if the video IP phone is used.
To use this function, the settings in SIP page must be configured properly.
There are two ways to get video through SIP, one is to dial the IP address
directly, the other is account registration mode. The details are as follows:
Method 1: IP Direct mode Dial on the camera’s IP address directly through SIP
phone, so you can see the video. Note: SIP phone and the camera should in the
same network segment.
Method 2: Account registration mode · Before using the SIP, you need to
register an account for the camera from the SIP server; · Register another
user account for the SIP device from the same SIP server; · Call the camera
User ID from the SIP device, you will get the video on the SIP device.

8.2.2.8 VPN VPN stands for Virtual Private Network. It is a network protocol
that can provide you secure encrypted connection over the public Internet. It
is s significant technology in surveillance industry. Imagine that you have a
network camera connected via public IP address, it’s possible for others to
log in or listen illegally if someone knows the specific IP address and and
forwarded port. Via VPN the camera streams and data will be transferred
through an encrypted tunnel. This encrypted VPN tunnel makes it appear as
though you are directly connected to the private network, keeping your online
activity (including your browsing history) hidden. VPN feature allows users to
log in the camera via a virtual IP, which makes it easier to configure the
camera remotely. General VPN mode allows users to upload OpenVPN configuration
file directly. Please note that the General VPN mode is working under OpenVPN
protocol. You can take the camera as an OpenVPN client.
Exporting an OpenVPN configuration file First we need to prepare an OpenVPN
configuration file. Configuration file (also known as connection profile) is
an .ovpn text file that contains the directives, parameters, and certificates
required to establish the server-client connection. Refer to the official
instruction regarding the configuration file exporting: https://openvpn.net
/vpn-server-resources/create-connection-profiles-and-connectclient-installers/
73
Uploading the OpenVPN configuration file Next, we need to upload the
configuration file. The connection will start automatically once the uploading
is done:
Note: If you disconnect the VPN manually or the connection is broken due to
network error, to restore connection you need to upload the configuration file
on this page again. Check the connection status. The picture below shows a
normal connection status:
74
Connecting camera via VPN on the web browser After the VPN connection is established, we can log in the camera via virtual IP
address.
Parameters Status Local IP Remote IP Duration
Definition Status of VPN connection Camera virtual IP VPN virtual IP Connection duration
Connecting camera via VPN on OpenVPN application
Optionally, you can also connect the camera via VPN on OpenVPN application.
First please make sure your computer is also connected to VPN. For example,
you can download OpenVPN client for Windows from: https://openvpn.net/client-
connect-vpnfor-windows/
After installation, you can see the application in Start menu. Open the app
Right click the VPN connection icon on tool bar and select Import file. Please
prepare another OpenVPN configuration file that is different from camera’s.
75
In this area, you can see all the configuration file you’ve uploaded. Select the corresponding file to connect:
When the connection is done, your computer will show this icon:
Open the
Web browser and enter virtual IP address to log in the camera via Web.
