The router connects to the Internet over a series of numbered ports. The ports normally used by the DCS-6620 are blocked from access over the Internet. Therefore, these ports need to be made accessible over the Internet. This is accomplished using the Virtual Server function on the DI-624 router. The Virtual Server ports used by the camera must be opened through the router for remote access to your camera. Virtual Server is accessed by clicking on the Advanced tab of the router screen.

Using and Configuring the DCS-6620 with a Router
Determine Your Router’s IP Address (WAN)
Note:
Because a dynamic WAN IP can change from time to time depending on your ISP,
you may want to obtain a Static IP address from your ISP.
A Static IP address is a fixed IP
address that will not change over time and will be more convenient for you to use to access
your camera from a remote location.
Open Virtual Server Ports to Enable Remote Image Viewing
The firewall security features built into the DI-624 router prevent users from accessing the
video from the
DCS-6620
over the Internet. The router connects to the Internet over a series
of numbered ports. The ports normally used by the
DCS-6620
are blocked from access over
the Internet.
Therefore, these ports need to be made accessible over the Internet. This is
accomplished using the
Virtual Server
function on the DI-624 router. The Virtual Server ports
used by the camera must be opened through the router for remote access to your camera.
Virtual Server is accessed by clicking on the
Advanced
tab of the router screen.
Your WAN IP Address
will be listed here.
