Network Video Surveillance software installed. The Alarm Host Port must be the same as software‟s
alarm monitor port (default port is 7200).
Configuring Multicast
Setting up multicasting solves limitation issues when streaming videos through a network access device. A multicast
address spans the Class-D IP range of 224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255. It is suggested that the IP address range of
239.252.0.0 to 239.255.255.255 be used.
To set up multicasting:
1. Enter the Network Settings menu by clicking Menu > Setting > Network.
2. Select the Advanced tab.
3. Click the Set button next to Host/Others to enter the Host/Others menu.
4. Set Multicast IP, as shown in Figure 10. When adding a device to the Network Video Surveillance
software, the multicast address must be the same as the DVR‟s multicast IP.
