oh6hfx 0 Posted February 7, 2015 There is an option to use NAS in Dahua cameras, at least HFW4300S and HDB3200CP that I own. However, user manual or help does not indicate what this actually means. There is fields for IP address and path, but no username or password. I have tested it with my Buffalo NAS but no success. I know FTP works but I'm thinking that maybe if NAS option works the camera sees NAS storage directly and could do also playback in camera UI like HDB3200CP does with SD card record. Anybody got this working? Johannes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
buellwinkle 0 Posted February 7, 2015 I didn't even get as far as you as I was able to enter an IP and directory, but the check box to enable it was grayed out. I was just doing it in the interest of science since I use Milestone XProtect, but would be interesting to see how it works. The camera I have does not have an SD card slot if that makes a difference. Also, I know Dahua talked about cloud at the last trade show I attended. Has anyone experience this with the Dahua cameras.

oh6hfx 0 Posted February 7, 2015 FTP should be clicked out on "path"-tab, so it is not possible to use FTP and NAS same time. After that you can input NAS address and folder. What I am looking for is that NAS could appear to camera similar as SD card local storage (which HFW4300S does not have) and enables playback functions. Maybe not possible at all, just thinking. However, NAS means Network Attached Storage and that can be interpreted also FTP, SMB, CIFS, whatever.. Johannes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
