Hikvision NVR issue

Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

Not sure what I am doing wrong here. Please help !

My setup is

Hikvision NVR 7608

External POE switch

3 cameras

 

I have the cameras going to the POE switch downstairs. The POE s/w is connected to my home LAN.

The network port on the NVR is connected to the home LAN as well. All of the cameras have been configured to a 192.168.1 X address. I am able to access them on the web and externally with the ivms4500 app. So when I go to the NVR to set up recording The cameras show up under the built in 8 poe ports in the NVR. But If I try to add them to recording it tells me "No more cameras allowed". I noticed the builtin POE ports seems to be on a different IP block assigned 192.168.253.X or so. I tried to connect the camera directly to the NVR POe port and it works but then access thru my LAN gets broken. Any idea what I am doing wrong. I did not want to use the builtin ports since I would have to run too many cables up stairs for each camera. Please help !

Oh, I think you should be modifying the settings on the Cam1 to 8 settings in the NVR and not clicking on the ADD.
