My first ONVIF/IVS camera and what a learning curve it has been.
Most tutorials are for configuring camera is for a NVR and therefore confusing to me a BI user. Pieces/parts found through the forums were difficult to find and rather dated. In hopes of simplifying the process for other newbies here are the steps on how I configured my T5442TM which got it up and running.
=======
Camera
IPV4
Wish I could leave Default Gateway blank, but am forced to enter an address. Besides the router's firewall blocking anything going to/from the camera, I'm keeping the device as isolated as possible.
IPV6
Likewise here, the DNS must be filled. Using local host rather than a real DNS server.
HTTP Port
Date/Time, DST, and Time Server
Enable ONVIF
Main and Sub-stream Video
Conditions
Disable all but Smart Plan and IVS
Click Schedule and enter a plan
Select IVS
Rule Config
Add Rules
The camera should now be a state which will link up with Blue Iris.
==============
Quick tutorial as to defining IVS rules; it's located on Dahua's site in France, but is in English.

What Next? Link below are the steps of adding the ONVIF camera to Blue Iris.
