How many ports need to open for port forwarding (against firewall)?

For Microseven network camera, there are web port, password port and video ports need to do port forwarding:

• Web port default is 80
• Password port (device) default is 9660
• Video port default is 9661

For example, IP address configuration for LAN is 192.168.1.201:
Then, port forwording is 80 for 192.168.1.201,
port forwarding is 9660-9661 for 192.168.1.201

If you have internet IP address is 74.212.249.249,
then you view your Microseven network camera on the internet is http://74.212.249.249
For demo Microseven network camera port forwarding is http://74.212.249.249:7777

The following example is 3 cameras, for port forwarding. A Netgear router uses 3 IP address for cameras:

• 192.168.1.201 for first camera.
• 192.168.1.202 for second camera.
• 192.168.1.203 for third camera.

Step 1    Go to port forwarding.

Step 2    Click on ‘Add Custom Service’, then go to next page.

1. Enter ‘cam1‘ in Service Name.
2. Service Type is ‘TCP/UDP‘.
3. Starting Port is ‘81‘.
4. Ending Port is ‘81‘.
5. Server IP Address is ‘192.168.1.201‘.
6. Click ‘Apply‘.

Step 3    Go to next page, Updating Settings.

Step 4    Now, Click on ‘Add Custom Service’ again to add password port and video ports.

1. Set Service Name as ‘cam1_video‘.
2. Set Service Type as ‘TCP/UDP‘.
3. Starting Port is ‘9660‘.
4. Ending Port is ‘9665‘.
5. Server IP Address is 192.168.1.201‘.
6. And then click ‘Apply‘.

Now, the first camera port forwarding setup is completed.

Step 5     Then, do the second Microseven network camera.

The second Microseven network camera setup is finished now.
Total three Microseven network camera setup for port forwarding will be the following snapshot.
