Pelco DX8100 - Manual (Page 36)

36 C2629M-A (6/07)
TCP/IP PORT AND BANDWIDTH THROTTLE SETUP
The DX8100 uses the TCP/IP networking protocol to communicate over LAN and WAN networks. TCP/IP uses logical network ports to organize
data transmissions and to ensure that data packets are delivered to the proper application. For example, e-mail is traditionally delivered through
TCP/IP port 25 and web pages through port 80. The ports assigned to direct video and control information into and out of the DX8100 are listed
below in Table C, “TCP/IP Ports Used by the DX8100,” on page 36.
You should keep port numbers set at their default values unless there is a known conflict with your existing network infrastructure. Consult your
network administrator before changing any port information on the DX8100. Consult your network administrator when assigning or changing the
port numbers. Make sure that ports are not blocked by a firewall.

configurable
Function
9002 Yes Base port for transmission of video, audio, and interface data
9003 Yes Software upgrade
9004 Yes Emergency agent notification
9005 No Information port
13900 No Ping port
To configure TCP/IP ports and bandwidth throttle:
1. If necessary, enter a new base port number. (9002 is the default)
2. If necessary, enter a new software upgrade port. (9003 is the default)
3. Drag the network bandwidth throttle slider to the desired value. (Client bandwidth can be adjusted from a minimum of 256 Kbps to a
maximum of 10 Mbps in increments of 256 Kbps.)
4. Click Apply.
