I have my network set up as shown in the attached diagram. My BI PC is attached to the main network, and the second NIC has 1 POE camera attached. The Annke cameras are behind their own NIC that is part of the NVR, and the doorbell is part of the wifi network.

I am pretty new to the IP cam world. I started by buying a reolink dome camera, hooking it up to POE switch attached to a 2nd NIC on a PC running BI in a VM. Got that working, next I connected an existing Annke (rebranded Hikvision) NVR and its 4 cameras to BI. Latest step is connecting a...

Ok, new issue. A couple of my cameras will drop out and blue Iris will show "No Signal". However if I access the rtsp stream in VLC, they will start working again. I have the camera configured with "Send rtsp Keep Alive" box checked.

I have the manual, it's 12 8.5x11 sheets. I can scan them, but they would be out of order, I can take pics, but that would be a bit of a pain. What specifically do you want?

Ok, I think I have a way forward. I was able to access the RTSP stream coming out of the camera with VLC. Now I need to configure BI to accept that stream. Any guide on how to do that?
