Test the local and the remote

con guration
You must con gure your CCTV system in two

steps:
1. DVR Local connection and con guration
2. DVR and mobile App remote con guration
The idea is to connect the cables from the DVR to

the router and work in the local con guration and
tests and later work in the remote con guration.
If you already have access to your DVR from the

Internet by using the mobile App, the local and
remote con guration are OK, but if something isn't
working properly you can gure it out by
understanding the following concepts.

1. DVR local connection and

con guration
Take a look at the diagram below to better

understand how you need to connect your DVR in
the network. The connection is very simple.
Connect the cables

- Use a UTP (network cable cat5e) to connect the

DVR to the router.
- Connect the router with your Internet service

and a yellow port to connect to the Internet.

Obviously, your router can have a different number

of ports with different colors, but the concept is the
same, it must have the ports for the local
connection and the port to connect to the Internet.
Take a look at the picture below.

you can have access to the DVR using your
computer or laptop using a web browser such as
Internet Explorer, Google Chrome or Firefox
OPEN
(usually Internet Explorer is better).
Important
Most DVRs and IP camera are compatible with
Internet Explorer (I.E.), that's why is recommended to
try this web browser rst and perhaps others later.

After entering the correct username and password,

you will be able to see your cameras via Web
Browser which means the local installation is OK.
As you can see in the picture below the DVR is

working correctly through the local network and
sending video to the web browser (I.E.).
The next step is to make sure the DVR has all the
correct network information for the remote access
con guration, you can check them in the network
menu.
Click on the DVR menu "Con guration" and

"Network"
(click to enlarge)
In the network basic settings menu check the

following:
- The IPV4 DVR IP address (according to your

network range).
- The IPV4 Subnet Mask (usually will be the same
as your computer's).
- The IPV4 Default Gateway (that's the router IP).
- The DNS Server (You can use 4.2.2.2 and 8.8.8.8).
Note: If you check the DHCP (Dynamic Host

Con guration Protocol) box, the DVR will receive
all the information from the router, just make sure
the information is correct and uncheck the DHCP
box.
Con gure the DVR ports
The DVR uses ports to communicate with the web

browser, computer software and mobile App.
(Those are virtual ports, no physical ones).
This information is available in the Network menu

under the Basic Settings and Port. (See the picture
below).
Pay attention to the details here as they are very

important.
Each port represents a service available in the DVR

and a client such as a computer, a mobile or a tablet
have access to them via those ports.
Note that I just changed the HTTP port from the

default value (80) to 8081
The 8081 is just an example to replace the 80 and

is pretty common to change the port that way so
the DVR port does not con ict with the router
ports (which is 80 by default).
The RTSP port 554 is a universal standard and

some software receive video streaming from the
DVR by requesting a connection to this port.
The HTTPS port 443 is also a universal standard

for secure connection via a web browser.
The Server port 8000 is used to stream video to a

computer software or mobile App used by the
manufacturer (Hikvision).
Important
After you change the HTTP port from 80 to 8081 the
web browser will disconnect, so you need to connect
again by informing the new port number, in our
example, you have to type http://192.168.1.1:8081 in
the web browser

2. DVR and mobile App remote

con guration
This is the part where you install and con gure the
iVMS-4500 App for remote access to the Hikvision
DVR and this step is on the top of this article.
I started the article with the second step, just in

case your local con guration is already working
ne. Just follow through to understand more.
The diagram below shows all the devices in your

CCTV network.
Note that the DVR, router, computer, and mobile

are in the local network, while the Hikvision P2P
Server is on the Internet.
After con guring the Hik-connect service in your

mobile with the iVMS-4500 App, the DVR sends
the video to the Hikvision server on the Internet.
That's why you can connect from the mobile using

the App
Conclusion
If you have a Hikvision DVR and are struggling to

have access via mobile phone just read the article to
understand the theory and you will be able to gure
out what's wrong with your con guration.
Everything must be done step-by-step to assure

that the basic stuff is working before move on to
the next level. I hope this can help you.
