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.
64
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.
65
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.

8.2.2.4 802. 1x
The IEEE 802. 1X standard is supported by the network cameras, and when the feature
is enabled, the camera data is secured and user authentication is needed when
connecting the camera to the network protected by the IEEE 802. 1X.
67
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.
68
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 >.
69
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-connect-
client-installers/
74
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:

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-vpn-
for-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.
76
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.
