Hikvision NVR DS-7104N-SN/P + BESDER BES-IPC6024-10 /HI3518E/

[BrainFree]

Good day, dear friends, may be someone had the same issues as I am.

Ive bought NVR Hikvision NVR DS-7104N-SN/P with POE and 2 cameras with POE BESDER BES-IPC6024-10 /HI3518E/.

H.264 FULL HD 1080P 2.0 Megapixel Security IP Camera HI3518E ABS Plastic Outdoor Camera IP 1080P DC 12V 48V PoE Optional -in Surveillance Cameras from Security & Protection on Aliexpress.com | Alibaba Group
Multi language CCTV 4CH POE NVR DS 7104N SN/P for POE IP Camera with 4 Ethernet Ports Support Surveillance Security System-in Surveillance Video Recorder from Security & Protection on Aliexpress.com | Alibaba Group

But i cant connect these cameras with NVR.

I`ve connected camera directly to NVR by cable, default camera IP is 192.168.1.10
I`ve input these settings to NVR
IP 192.168.1.10
Control port 8899
Protocol ONVIF, admin with null passwd.
But... NVR can't connect to the camera.

i`ve checked my LAN for IP conflicts no problem with it.
NVR receiving from router local IP 192.168.31.168 and default Hikwision cameras should have IPs like 192.168.254.2(3,4,5)
I tried different settings and have no any visible result, i have only one idea - to buy POE Injector and set to camera static IP from NVRs pool (192.168.254.2(3,4,5)

I will add screenshots little later, if it will be useful.
Please kindly assist with this hardware.

Yes, that is required, but the IP address must match that of the NVR PoE channel you have the camera plugged in to.
You can avoid the need for a PoE injector if you connect the PC to an unused NVR PoE port, keeping the PC IP address in the normal LAN address range for example 192.168.1.200 You'll need to set a static address as your PC was probably given a DHCP address by your router.
Then you can access the cameras web GUI at 192.168.1.10 and change it's IP address to the selected address in the 192.168.254.x range.

Control port 8899

This looks like you've already figured out the needed 'ONVIF port'.
When done, plug the PC back into the LAN, put it's network settings back the way they were, and all should be good.
