IVMS 4500 and ports for 2 cameras

[thorholt]

Hello Everyone, I have 2 Huisun bullet cams V-1 and I am trying to get both of them to work on IVMS 4500, I have one camera working on it but I need to forward port 8000 for it to work, I have the camera's RTSP port at 1025 and the second camera's port set at 1026 and have them both port forwarded to their respective IP address in my Linksys router and they are both viewable remotely on my Windows 10 computer, But the problem is that I can only forward the 8000 to one of the IP address in the router and IVMS 4500 will only work on port 8000 if I try the 1025 or 1026 I get no connection, What am I missing? Why won't it work using port 1025 or 1026 in IVMS 4500? Thanks!

I understand you need to carry out "Port Mapping" via web UI of camera & obviously the router. Internal port of 2nd camera would still be 8000 but use a different external port 8001 etc to the internal IP address of 2nd camera. Within ivms4500 you can adjust port accordingly.

Here is how the 2 cams are setup, I can view both on my pc with this setup, but only cam 1 on IVMS and I have to set the port setting on IVMS to port 8000 for it to work at all.

I had the wrong picture in the last post, this is cam 2 settings,

I would personally keep the 8000 media port on both cameras @ 8000. Then port map only the 2nd camera to another vacant port 8001 & so on. Then configure ivms4500 via device manage to use reconfigured external port 8001 etc?

8400, 8500, 8600, and so on as you add more cameras. If your one that port forwards... 8401-8403, 8501-8503, 8601-8303...so on and so on. Be sure to change the camera port numbers according in the camera web UI.

That's the thing, no where on the camera's web UI do I have it set to port 8000 but I have to use that on the router to get it to work on at least one of the cameras anyway.

This is the port setting box from the Hickvision camera, it has the settings for the server port on it that is used for the mobile viewing, our Huisun does not have that setting so I can only get port 8000 to work no matter where I set the port mapping settings, Is there any work around for this?
