Connect a management PC to the WAN port directly or via LAN. The NVR comes with an embedded DHCP server for its LAN ports. It is necessary to configure the LAN ports and the WAN port into different Class C subnets, e.g., 192.168.100.xxx for LAN and 192.168.4.xxx for WAN. 4. If you want to access NVR over the Internet, connect the NVR to the Internet via the WAN port. 5. If you have external devices such as sensors and alarms, make connections from the general I/O terminal block.

5 Assigning an IP Address English 1. 1-1. If your local network does not have a DHCP server, you may temporarily connect a PC to a LAN port for initial configuration. The NVR comes with a default IP, 192.168.100.1. You can access the NVR server using this IP, and then manaully assign an IP to the NVR WAN port. 1-2. If your local network has a DHCP server, connect the WAN port to your local network, and use the IW2 utility to find the NVR server IP. You may then access the NVR server by entering the discovered IP in the address bar of a web browser. 1-3 Once connected to the NVR server, please keep the LAN setting as default. You may let DHCP server assign an IP to your NVR WAN port - or - if you need to access NVR over Internet, please configure a WAN port IP address in Router/firewall using port forwarding or DMZ. 2. If you need to access NVR over the Internet, please assign a WAN IP address in the configuration page. You may use DDNS for Internet access. There are three ways to get WAN IP address: DHCP (Dynamic IP), Static IP address, and PPPoE (DSL). If your network environment is DHCP, you can use VIVOTEK Installation Wizard 2 (IW2) to discover the IP address for the WAN port. (1) Install Installation Wizard 2 from the Software Utility directory on the software CD. (2) The program will conduct an analysis of your network environment. After your network is analyzed, please click on the Next button to continue the program. Installation Wizard 2 (3) The program will search the VIVOTEK Network Devices on the same LAN. (4) After searching, the main installer window will pop up. Click on the MAC that matches the one labeled on your device to connect to the Network Video Recorder via Internet Explorer. 00-02-D1-07-89-3F 192.168.5.131 NR8301 0002D107893F NR8301 0002D107893F 3.
