Are you confused by the technical terms mentioned in the IP camera configuration steps above?
Is there an easier way for individuals with only a basic understanding of the internet to configure an IP camera?
The answer is a resounding YES.
P2P technology has made IP camera configuration easy for beginners. P2P security cameras, including both wireless cameras and wired PoE security systems, are designed to save you the trouble of fixing the IP address for stable remote viewing.
So, what is P2P, and how do you set up an IP camera on the internet with P2P technology?
To put it simply, each P2P-enabled security camera is registered at the developer-level P2P server and identified with a unique ID number (UID). Thus, every time you want to access the camera locally or remotely, you only need to ping the P2P server with the camera UID via the security camera software.
Setting up a P2P IP camera configuration requires only three simple steps:
- Download and install the IP camera configuration software ZOSI Smart App on your phone or PC.
- Launch the ZOSI App or Client and enter the UID to add the security camera.
- Click on the camera in the software, and the CCTV camera’s configuration is complete. You can now view the live footage both within and outside your home network.
Is IP camera configuration secure via the P2P server?
P2P technology is not new and is widely used in many fields, including Skype. Also, reputable brands like ZOSI have adopted multiple methods to ensure the security of data transmission, including using various servers and advanced encryption techniques.
So, if you’re searching for an IP camera with an easy setup, a P2P camera won’t disappoint you. Consult the IP camera client manual for a more detailed guide with screenshots of every setup step.
