2.6 Configure Your Firewall/Router For Accessing
Prima IP Across Internet
To allow access to the Prima IP behind corporate firewall/router, please configure the
following settings on your firewall/router (not on your Prima IP):
Step 1. Configure a virtual server on your router: you should configure (or ask
your network administrator to configure for you) a virtual server as mapped to the
Prima IP local IP address.
Step 2. Open a port range (<port_base> ~ <port_base+9>) both inbound
and outbound for the virtual server: you should open a port range according to
what you have configured as port base for Prima IP previously.
Taking previous example, if you configure Prima IP as having a port base of 5970,
then you should open port range 5970~5979 ( that is, <port_base> ~ <port_base
+9>) both for inbound and outbound, in which,
<port_base> = 5970 is the Prima IP viewer connection port
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
<port_base + 8> = 5978 is the browser SSL connection port
<port_base + 9> = 5979 is for viewer internal communication, etc.
For example:
Router internet IP
virtual server (port range open) Prima IP local IP
61.232.134.120 virtual server (port 5970~5979 open) 192.168.1.7
Once you haved configure a virtual server with appropriate port range open
(<port_base> ~ <port_base_+_9>), you can then try to access your Prima IP
across internet by using the public IP address and designated port number. For
example, in this case,
Browser access: https:// 61.232.134.120:5978
Viewer access: 61.232.134.120:5970
If you have domain name mapping to the public IP address, you can also use the domain
name, for example:
Browser access: https:// www.mycompany.com:5978
Viewer access: www.mycompany.com:5970
Once you have changed the port base of your Prima IP, you should also modify the open port range
on your router accordingly, if you want internet access to come across.
