greengak 0 Posted June 3, 2015 Just set up a system of four Axis cams. Got them all working using DynDNS such that: cam1 = private.mydomain.com:1000 cam2 = private.mydomain.com:1001 cam3 = private.mydomain.com:1002 cam4 = private.mydomain.com:1003 Used standard port forwarding on a Linksys router and all is working. However, it basically only works for the cameras' main HTTP stream, which is on port 80. As soon as I use HTTPS (port 443) or RTSP streaming (port 554), nothing works, probably because the ports don't map correctly. What's the best way out of this? Or even a better way to design the setup? Ideally, I'd love to use something like cam1.mydomain.com, cam2.mydomain.com, etc because that's not really possible using simple DDNS, as far as I can tell. Come to think of it, would it be best to just configure the camera to run all services (HTTP, HTTPS, RTSP) on a single port? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It may be that the rtsp describe request is returning internal port numbers that will only work internally, or a rtsp redirect is being returned with the internal port numbers. It should work over https if it works over http, though. * The port numbers can't be set the same. unfortunately with one external ip address the only way is to forward a port to each camera on it's own port for each service you want to expose to the internet. I say the only way. the other way is that you create a VPN/SSH tunnel into your network, but then you need to use client software to log into the vpn first, which may not fit your usage needs.
