you can choose TCP or UDP transport protocol for it. Click to finish batch adding.
Note:
The steps for adding the third party PoE cameras plugged into Milesight PoE NVR:
① Set camera’s IP segment to the same as NVR PoE NIC before plugging into PoE NVR;
② Select PoE for NIC in Device Search interface, click to search out cameras;
③ Select cameras and click to add them.
93
Method2. Add camera through camera management interface. ‘Settings’ à ‘Camera’ à ‘Camera
Management’.
Select channel id, input complete information, then click button.
There are three protocols available for camera connection:
l ONVIF: You can add any IP cameras with ONVIF protocols.
l RTSP: You can add any IP cameras with RTSP protocol streams (Port: 554). It needs you
to input complete resource path of the IP camera to add it. Take Milesight device for example,
the resource path of main stream is “rtsp://IP:port/main” and second stream is
“rtsp://IP:port/sub”.
94
l MSSP: You can add Milesight cameras which are in the same LAN with this protocol.
Step2. Check the connection status.
After adding the IP channels, click on Camera Management interface, then
appears under Status. If it doesn’t appear, you need to check if the network is connected or whether
the user name, password is correct or not.

1. Connect camera to PoE port, it will detect the camera automatically.
2. If the camera's password is "ms1234", it will be successfully authenticated and be changed into the
same network segment with internal NIC IPv4 address, then the camera will be connected
successfully.
3. If the camera's password is not "ms1234", the PoE channel will show disconnect status. You need to
input the camera's password by clicking to realize authentication ( you can also
multi-select the devices and then click this button). Then the camera will be changed into the same
network segment with internal NIC IPv4 address and will be successfully connected. In next time, NVR
will use the password you input to authenticate this camera when you re-plug it.
