Operating Instructions
Functions
Notes
• When modifying address translation settings, also set the PCs connected to this product, and
restart the PCs.
• When setting Automatic deletion of UPnP™ port mapping to indefinite, the external port opened in
UPnP™ will not close without instruction from the application. From a security perspective, when
using Windows/MSN Messenger, set the timer to delete the port automatically.
Also, when using Windows/MSN Messenger and the port is deleted by timer, shutdown Windows/
MSN Messenger once first before trying to sign in again. Windows/MSN Messenger will not
operate without once shutting down first.
• When this product is working under a UPnP™ supporting router connected to the WAN side,
sometimes the IGD function does not work in this product's security settings, which is due to the
router's specifications. Set the stealth mode settings of this product to Disable. (see page 67)
Working Under a UPnP™ Supporting Router
CP Function
The CP function allows you to control the port mapping of a UPnP™ supporting router connected to
the WAN side (hereinafter known as 'Top router'). A device with this function is called a CP (Control
Point). This function is enabled for cameras registered on this product.
Notes
• Even if the Top router supports UPnP™, it may not work due to the Top router's specifications.
• When the settings for filtering sent data from WAN to LAN through the Top router have been set,
sometimes access from the Internet to the Camera Portal and cameras connected to the LAN side
is denied. It is necessary to modify the filtering settings of the Top router.
• When the Top router web server is using port number 80, either modify the Top router settings, or
change the port number of this product's web server to a number other than 80 (e.g. 8081). (see
page 77)
When changing this product's web server's port number, specify the new port number in the web
browser's address bar. (e.g. "http://WAN_side_IP_address:8081")
• Sometimes the CP function does not work, due to the Top router's specifications.
