Network Port Setup
I-View Now utilizes the device’s network port. The port, which has a default of 7000, must be forwarded from the
Router/firewalls external interface to the DVR’s static internal address. Ideally, this port can be left as the default value,
but on a network where this external port is already in use. It may be necessary to change them.
Any changes must be
reflected in the I-View Now Dealer portal settings for that device.
If the ports must be changed
Navigate back to the Network Setup
Enter the new Port number
Click save to finalize settings
Router Settings
Router settings must be examined on a case by case basis. I-View Now requires one port to be forwarded to the device.
This can be done either through port forwarding or NAT (Network Address Translation) depending on what the
installation site’s router supports. With either of these router features, any unused/unfiltered external port can be
forwarded to the port. For example External Port 9000 could be forwarded to the DVR on port 7000 internally. In this
case, the default TCP port on the DVR itself could be left alone.
The other approach would be to forward external ports to the DVR using the same external port and internal port. In
this case, the ports must be set on the DVR through Network Settings. Common ports used for forwarding the device
port are 7001, 7002, 8000, 8001 or 8002.
For any of these situations it is the external IP address and external port numbers that must be entered into the I-View
Now “Installer’s Portal.”
Note: Any ports used must be unblocked in any firewall devices (typically just the router).
