We are setting up Tiandy TC-C38TS CCTV cameras that are used for people counting outdoors. Need to make the CCTV camera IP static so it will not change the IP addresses in time. Also, I would like to get a guide on how to set up remote access, as we need to use it with Tiandy NVR TC-R3120. I think the architecture Tiandy uses is very close to Hikvision.
We use Tiandy TC-C38TS - ODT140 4G - High speed 4 port switch - Tiandy NVR TC-R3120.
Following should give you an idea of how to access a remote camera. Setting a static IP address for a camera would be something covered in the specific camera manual
As @Mattk mentioned, setting a static IP on the camera itself, should be noted in guides for that specific camera. Usual process is connecting to the camera when it is in the same network via it’s default IP, then going to Network or IP configuration section, and set a static IP there
Static IP: f.e., 192.168.88.101
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
You would also need to access our device’s WEBUI, and go to Network →DHCP →Static leases, and add that camera details, which means binding a specific IP address to your camera’s unique MAC address so that whenever the camera connects to the router, it will always get assigned the same IP address
Afterwards, the advised method to connect to that camera is our own RMS platform, more specifically, RMS VPN hubs, also as another user advised above. Go to VPN Hub from the RMS dashboard.
Create new VPN Hub.
Add client, Device, and routes. Download the VPN configuration file. (This process you can find in the video)
I can access the RMS webpage for remote access to the camera settings, so it should be all okay. But I can’t get the picture to the NVR. I’m missing something, but I’m not sure what.
