Networking Overview

This chapter will try to give you a detailed instruction on how to network

the DVR. Before we begin the process of networking your digital recorder we

should have a working knowledge of what a network is and how it works. This

will be a helpful in completing the networking process.

Introduction to TCP/IP

TCP/IP is the suite of protocols used by the Internet and most LANs

(Local Area Networks) throughout the world. In TCP/IP, every host (computer

or other communications device) that is connected to the network has a unique IP

address. By doing this you are giving your device a unique address similar to the

address of your house. An IP address is composed of four octets (numbers in the

range of 0 to 255) separated by decimal points. The IP address is used to uniquely

identify a host or computer on the LAN. For example, a computer with the

hostname Workstation could have an IP address of 192.168.1.127.

You should avoid giving two or more computers the same IP address by

using the range of IP addresses that are reserved for private, local area networks;

this range of IP addresses usually begins with the octets 192.168. The first three

octets of an IP address should be the same for all computers in the local area

network. For example, if a total of 253 computers exist in a single LAN, the IP

addresses could be assigned starting with 192.168.1.x, where xrepresents a

number in the range of 2 to 254.

Subnet Masks

Each host in a LAN has a subnet mask. The subnet mask is an octet that uses the

number 255 to represent the network address portion of the IP address and a zero to

identify the host portion of the address. For example, the subnet mask 255.255.255.0 is

used by each host to determine which LAN or class it belongs to. The zero at the end

of the subnet mask represents a unique host within that network. Basically the subnet

mask represents the city you live in for your home address, but in this case you are

stating the network you belong too.

Chapter

Gateway Address

Each host in a LAN has a gateway. A gateway address is composed of four

octets (numbers in the range of 0 to 255) separated by decimal points. The

gateway address is used to uniquely identify a host or computer on the LAN

which assigns the IP addresses to your network. For example, a Linksys router has

an IP address of 192.168.1.1. If you were using this type of router within your

LAN, then your gateway would be the IP address of the Linksys router. The

reason this would be your gateway is because the Linksys is assigning the IP

addresses for your network therefore the Linksys would be the gateway to your

network. This is similar to the zip code of your address.

Virtual Ports

A port number represents an endpoint or "channel" for network

communications. Port numbers allow different applications on the same computer

to utilize network resources without interfering with each other. Port numbers

most commonly appear in network programming, particularly socket

programming. Sometimes, though, port numbers are made visible to the casual

user. For example, some Web sites a person visits on the Internet use a URL like

the following:

http://www.everfocus.com:8100/

In this example, the number 8100 refers to the port number used by the

Web browser to connect to the Web server. Normally, a Web site uses port

number 80 and this number need not be included with the URL (although it can

be). In IP networking, port numbers can theoretically range from 0 to 65535. Most

popular network applications, though, use port numbers at the low end of the

range (such as 80 for HTTP). This could be similar to the front door of your

house. Without the door to the house being open you could not enter it. This is

the same case with ports on a network. If the ports for a specific IP address are

not open then you could not gain access to that IP address or what it is

addressing.

Please Note: The term port also refers to several other aspects of network

technology. A port can refer to a physical connection point for peripheral

devices such as serial, parallel, and USB ports. The term port also refers to

certain Ethernet connection points, such as those on a hub, switch, or

router.

Pre-Installation

Before we begin with the installation we must ask ourselves a few

questions in order to figure out where to begin with networking our DVR’s.

Do you have Hi-speed Internet? ______________

There are many types of high speed Internet available. Three commonly

used ones are T1, Cable, and DSL (in order of speed).

Please Note: Everfocus suggests having a minimum upload speed

of 256KBps. This can be addressed by the Internet Service

Provider.

Who is your Internet provider? ______________

Please confirm that your internet service provider that our upload

speed is at least 256KBps.

What type of modem/router do you have? ______________

Modem/router model name/ #

The modem/router was either installed by your Internet service provider

or purchased by you to establish a connection to the Internet. A router is

installed to allow multiple computers to access the Internet through the

same external IP address. It in turn assigns different internal IP addresses

to local computers for this specific purpose.

Do you have a static IP address? ______________

A Static IP address means you use the same IP address every time you log

on to the Internet. With a static IP address, other Internet users always

know the identity of your computer and can easily connect with it. That

way, you can host a website, email server, or other type of server

connection. Everfocus suggest using a static IP address. If your Internet

provider does not offer a static IP address you have the option to use a

dynamic IP address. This will be explained in more detail later on in the

chapter.

Do you have a dynamic IP address? ______________

A Dynamic IP address means your IP address changes each time you make

a connection to the Internet. We recommend asking your Internet service

provider for a Static IP address. If this is not a possibility, you may

purchase a router (we suggest a Linksys or D-link router) which supports

DDNS. DDNS is a Dynamic Domain Name Server, a service that

provides a central (public) database where DNS information can be stored

and retrieved. It allows those using a dynamic IP address to be registered

centrally so users can connect to it by name.

What type of DVR are you installing? ______________

Everfocus EDR series: EDR 400, 1600 or 1680

Everfocus EDSR series: EDSR 110, 400H, 400M, 400, 900, or 1600

What Type of Network Connection do you have?

Everfocus DVR’s can operate using three distinct types of networking

connections.

1. Simple One to One Connection: A simple one to one connection is the

most simple network connection. Basically it is a connection between a

Computer and Another Computer or in this case a DVR using a cross-

over cable. (See page on how to install this type of connection)

2. Direct High Speed Modem Connection: A direct high speed modem

connection is a network connection from the modem directly to a

computer or in this case the DVR. (See page on how to install this type of

connection)

3. Router or LAN Connection – A local area network connection either

requires a router or a pre-existing LAN connection. Typically this type of

connection is the most commonly used application. A router allows

multiple computers and DVR’s to access each other as well as the Internet.

It assigns different internal IP addresses to the computers.

Simple One to One Connection

Crossover Ethernet Cable Pin outs:

The Diagram below shows the pin configurations for a cross over cable.

Diagram 31

Connection Procedure:

¾The First step is to purchase or make a cross over cable. We recommend

purchasing one if you have never made a cross over cable. Please

remember you can not use a straight through network cable for this

application

¾Once you have a cross over cable plug one end into the LAN port on the

back of the recorder and the other into the network card on the back of

the computer.

¾Now Log into the Everfocus DVR menu and using the jog dial from the

previous chapter go to the Network Setting Menu. (See page 28 for more

instructions)

Cat 5

Cross-over-cable

¾Assign an IP address of 192.168.001.003 to the DVR, a Subnet mask of

255.255.255.000, and a default gateway of 192.168.001.001.

¾The next step is to get the computer onto the same network to do this you

will need administrator access to your windows machine.

¾To assign a static IP address in windows 2000/XP.
