About local IP address ranges
When a client, such as XProtect Smart Client, connects to a surveillance system, an amount of initial
data communication, including the exchange of contact addresses goes on in the background. This
happens automatically, and is transparent to users.
Clients may connect from the local network as well as from the Internet, and in each case the
surveillance system should be able to provide suitable addresses so the clients can get access to live
and recorded video from the recording servers:

When clients connect locally, the surveillance system should reply with local addresses and
port numbers.

When clients connect from the Internet, the surveillance system should reply with the recording
servers' public addresses, that is the address of the firewall or NAT (Network Address
Translation) router, and often also a different port number (which is then forwarded to
recording servers).
