EX Series - Common Questions » Network Issues

What ports do I need to have open to access my DVR remotely?

The EX Series, as of the latest software (v11.05.4), uses TCP Ports 3000, 3001, 3003, 3007 and 8800 for Client Software remote access. The system uses TCP Ports 80, 3000, 3001, 3007, and 8800 for basic web browser access (default settings).

The Live View and Search functions use TCP Port 3000, while PTZ Camera functions use TCP port 3001. Settings functions use TCP Port 3003 and as of the later versions of software (11.02.1 and up), TCP Port 3007 is required to be open for Bandwidth Throttling purposes (you will NOT be able to see Live Views if this port remains closed).

In addition to these ports, a web interface port (by default, TCP port 80, but other ports can be used) needs to be opened to use the Web Browser Client. Also, if sound recording is used, an audio port (TCP Port 8800) must also be open for streaming sound to be enabled.

If the Remote Notify is used, port 3005 will need to be opened and/or forwarded as well.

If the IP Server is used, 4000 may also be required.
