Network Connection Modes Supported by CamGuard Security System
- Direct connection to the network. Normally this refers to the connection mode with external IP address after ADSL, modem etc. are connected to the network;
- Connection mode within LAN and behind symmetric NAT. Normally this appears within relatively large LAN.
- Connection mode within LAN, access Internet through router that supports and launches UPNP.
- Connection mode within LAN that connects to Internet through routers not supporting UPNP function, but has made DMZ mapping on the router or manual mapping on the network ports used by CamGuard Security System (4 Channels). Such connection mode sets Internet access mode as "Direct connection" in order to enable remote monitoring function properly, which is done in the network section of System Options.

- Wireless connection mode through CDMA/GPRS etc.
Except the fourth connection mode where connection mode is required to be set as "Direct connection", all other connection modes can be set as "Auto detection" and the program will determine connection mode automatically and make corresponding network connection operations.
