5.9 AI
AI detection is to process and analyze the image and extract the key information, and then
compare the key information with the preset detection rule. An alarm is triggered when the
detected behavior matches the detection rule.
The following gures are for reference only and might dier from the actual situation.
5.9.1 Overview
AI detection falls into AI by camera and AI by recorder.
AI by camera: Some cameras themselves support AI detection. The cameras perform AI
detection and send the detection results to the NVR for display. When using AI by camera, make
sure to connect the Device to the cameras that support the corresponding AI detection
functions.
AI by recorder: The cameras send videos to NVR for detection, analysis and result display.
Some models support AI by camera only.
The AI functions might vary with models.
Dierent AI functions might conict with each other. You cannot enable two conicting AI
functions for the same channel.

An image in the video is generally a colorful image that contains color
information, such as RGB. When these three components appear at
some unusual scale in an image, the image is biased.
Defocus
An image with high resolution contains more details, but image blur is a
common problem of image quality decrease which is caused by many
factors in the process of image acquisition, transmission and processing,
and is dened as virtual focus in video diagnosis.
Overexpose
The brightness of the image refers to the intensity of the image pixels.

6.4 Cluster Service
The cluster function, also known as cluster redundancy, is a kind of deployment method that can
improve the reliability of the device. In the cluster system, there is a number of main devices and
another number of sub devices (the N+M mode), and they have a virtual IP address (the cluster IP).
When the main device fails, the corresponding sub device will take over the job automatically.
When the main device recovers, the sub device will transmit the conguration data, cluster IP
address and videos recorded during the failure to the main device which then takes over the job
again.
In the N+M cluster system, there is a management server, the DCS (Dispatching Console) server,
which is responsible for timely and correct scheduling management of the main and sub devices.
When you create a cluster, the current device is used as the rst sub device and the DCS server by
default.
This function is available on select models.
6.4.1 Conguring Cluster IP
Background Information
When the main device malfunctions, the sub device can use the main device conguration and
virtual IP address to replace the work (monitor or record) accordingly. When you use the virtual IP
to access the device, you can still view the real-time video and there is no risk of record loss.

7 Glossary
DHCP: DHCP (Dynamic Host Conguration Protocol) is one of the TCP/IP protocol cluster. It is
mainly used to assign temporary IP addresses to computers on a network.
DDNS: DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name Server) is a service that maps Internet domain names to
IP addresses. This service is useful to anyone who wants to operate a server (web server, mail
server, ftp server and more.) connected to the internet with a dynamic IP or to someone who
wants to connect to an oce computer or server from a remote location with software.
eSATA: eSATA (External Serial AT) is an page that provides fast data transfer for external storage
devices. It is the extension specications of a SATA page.
GPS: GPS (Global Positioning System) is a satellite system, protected by the US, safely orbiting
thousands of kilometers above the earth.
PPPoE: PPPoE (Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet) is a specication for connecting multiple
computer users on an Ethernet local area network to a remote site. Now the popular mode is
ADSL and it adopts PPPoE protocol.
Wi-Fi: Wi-Fi is the name of a popular wireless networking technology that uses radio waves to
provide wireless high-speed Internet and network connections. The standard is for wireless local
area networks (WLANs). It is like a common language that all the devices use to communicate to
each other. It is actually IEEE802.11, a family of standard The IEEE (Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers Inc.)
3G: 3G is the wireless network standard. It is called 3G because it is the third generation of
cellular telecom standards. 3G is a faster network for phone and data transmission and speed Is
over several hundred kbps. Now there are four standards: CDMA2000, WCDMA, TD-SCDMA and
WiMAX.
Dual-stream: The dual-stream technology adopts high-rate bit stream for local HD storage such
as QCIF/CIF/2CIF/DCIF/4CIF encode and one low-rate bit stream for network transmission such
as QCIF/CIF encode. It can balance the local storage and remote network transmission. The dual-
stream can meet the dierence band width requirements of the local transmission and the
remote transmission. In this way, the local transmission using high-bit stream can achieve HD
storage and the network transmission adopting low bit stream suitable for the uency
requirements of the 3G network such as WCDMA, EVDO, TD-SCDMA.
On-o value: It is the non-consecutive signal sampling and output. It includes remote sampling
and remote output. It has two statuses: 1/0.

Questions Reasons
I cannot connect to the IPC
Make sure that the IPC has booted up.
IPC network connection is right and it is online
IPC IP is in the blocklist.
The device has connected to the too many IPC. It cannot
transmit the video.
Check the IPC port value and the time zone is the same as
the NVR.
Make sure current network environment is stable.
After I set the NVR resolution as
1080P, my monitor cannot
display.
Shut down the device and then reboot. When you reboot, press
the Fn button at the same time and then release after 5
seconds. You can restore NVR resolution to the default setup.
My admin account has been
changed and I cannot log in.
Use telnet and then input the following command:
cd /mnt/mtd/Cong/
rm -rf group
rm -rf password
Reboot the device to restore the default password.
After I login the Web, I cannot
nd the remote page to add the
IPC.
Clear the Web controls and load again.
There is IP and gateway, I can
access the internet via the
router. But I cannot access the
internet after I reboot the NVR.
Use command PING to check you can connect to the gateway or
not. Use telnet to access and then use command "ifcong –a" to
check device IP address. If you see the subnet mask and the
gateway has changed after the reboot. Upgrade the
applications and set again.
I use the VGA monitor. I want to
know if I use the multiple-
window mode, I see the video
from the main stream or the sub
stream?
For 32-channel series product, the 9/16-window is using the
sub stream.
For 4/8/16 series product, system is using the main stream
no matter you are in what display mode.

Appendix 5 Cybersecurity Recommendations
Cybersecurity is more than just a buzzword: it’s something that pertains to every device that is
connected to the internet. IP video surveillance is not immune to cyber risks, but taking basic steps
toward protecting and strengthening networks and networked appliances will make them less
susceptible to attacks. Below are some tips and recommendations from Dahua on how to create a
more secured security system.
Mandatory actions to be taken for basic device network security:
1. Use Strong Passwords
Please refer to the following suggestions to set passwords:
The length should not be less than 8 characters.
Include at least two types of characters; character types include upper and lower case letters,
numbers and symbols.
Do not contain the account name or the account name in reverse order.
Do not use continuous characters, such as 123, abc, etc.
Do not use overlapped characters, such as 111, aaa, etc.
2. Update Firmware and Client Software in Time
According to the standard procedure in Tech-industry, we recommend to keep your device
(such as NVR, DVR, IP camera, etc.) rmware up-to-date to ensure the system is equipped
with the latest security patches and xes. When the device is connected to the public
network, it is recommended to enable the “auto-check for updates” function to obtain timely
information of rmware updates released by the manufacturer.
We suggest that you download and use the latest version of client software.
"Nice to have" recommendations to improve your device network security:
1. Physical Protection
We suggest that you perform physical protection to device, especially storage devices. For
example, place the device in a special computer room and cabinet, and implement well-done
access control permission and key management to prevent unauthorized personnel from
carrying out physical contacts such as damaging hardware, unauthorized connection of
removable device (such as USB ash disk, serial port), etc.
2. Change Passwords Regularly
We suggest that you change passwords regularly to reduce the risk of being guessed or cracked.
3. Set and Update Passwords Reset Information Timely
The device supports password reset function. Please set up related information for password
reset in time, including the end user’s mailbox and password protection questions. If the
information changes, please modify it in time. When setting password protection questions, it is
suggested not to use those that can be easily guessed.
4. Enable Account Lock
The account lock feature is enabled by default, and we recommend you to keep it on to
guarantee the account security. If an attacker attempts to log in with the wrong password
several times, the corresponding account and the source IP address will be locked.
5. Change Default HTTP and Other Service Ports
We suggest you to change default HTTP and other service ports into any set of numbers
between 1024–65535, reducing the risk of outsiders being able to guess which ports you are
using.
6. Enable HTTPS
We suggest you to enable HTTPS, so that you visit Web service through a secure communication
channel.

7. MAC Address Binding
We recommend you to bind the IP and MAC address of the gateway to the device, thus reducing
the risk of ARP spoong.
8. Assign Accounts and Privileges Reasonably
According to business and management requirements, reasonably add users and assign a
minimum set of permissions to them.
9. Disable Unnecessary Services and Choose Secure Modes
If not needed, it is recommended to turn o some services such as SNMP, SMTP, UPnP, etc., to
reduce risks.
If necessary, it is highly recommended that you use safe modes, including but not limited to the
following services:
SNMP: Choose SNMP v3, and set up strong encryption passwords and authentication
passwords.
SMTP: Choose TLS to access mailbox server.
FTP: Choose SFTP, and set up strong passwords.
AP hotspot: Choose WPA2-PSK encryption mode, and set up strong passwords.
10.Audio and Video Encrypted Transmission
If your audio and video data contents are very important or sensitive, we recommend that you
use encrypted transmission function, to reduce the risk of audio and video data being stolen
during transmission.
Reminder: encrypted transmission will cause some loss in transmission eciency.
11.Secure Auditing
Check online users: we suggest that you check online users regularly to see if the device is
logged in without authorization.
Check device log: By viewing the logs, you can know the IP addresses that were used to log
in to your devices and their key operations.
12.Network Log
Due to the limited storage capacity of the device, the stored log is limited. If you need to save
the log for a long time, it is recommended that you enable the network log function to ensure
that the critical logs are synchronized to the network log server for tracing.
13.Construct a Safe Network Environment
In order to better ensure the safety of device and reduce potential cyber risks, we recommend:
Disable the port mapping function of the router to avoid direct access to the intranet devices
from external network.
The network should be partitioned and isolated according to the actual network needs. If
there are no communication requirements between two sub networks, it is suggested to use
VLAN, network GAP and other technologies to partition the network, so as to achieve the
network isolation eect.
Establish the 802.1x access authentication system to reduce the risk of unauthorized access
to private networks.
Enable IP/MAC address ltering function to limit the range of hosts allowed to access the
device.
