Changed HTTP port and cant access Hikvision Camera ...

Recommended Posts


Use SADP (Search Active Devices Protocol software) from Hikvision to find the camera on your network and see what is the current port.

 

You probably have SADP on the CD that camera with your camera, or you can download it from Hikvision web site.

It doesnt show up on SADP . However, it does show up on the hikvision ivms 4200 software in the configuration setup only after a few seconds but it wont connect or let me do remote configuration (I feel like both softwares use the standard port 80 information for http to do some sort of configuration). In fact after I do try to connect to it via ivms configuration page it disappears from online cameras list and i have to restart program to get it to show up again. Do you have any other ideas on how I can connect in to get this stuff straightened out. I do not know why they would let me change http port if I wouldnt be able to connect afterwards. I mean I am 99% sure I set the http port to 9821 and figured just adding that port after colon in url would work. Now that its not working maybe I typed something else and am going crazy? I dont know what to do and am getting nervious cuz these are cameras I installed for my gf dad! Its the hikvision DS-2CD2132-I dome camera if that helps. I read there might not be a reset button so am I am guessing I am screwed now ? I mean the camera was working just fine and I changed that http port and then this all happens....

 

Thanks for the reply

I am just doing this inside the LAN, so would i even need to change the port on the router? I figure I only need to configure ports on router if I am trying to access outside the LAN via internet. I mean I do have ports open to the rtsp and sdk so my gf dad could use the ivms 4500 on his android phone. However, since I changed the http port, the hiddns is no longer connected for some reason so the android app cant connect either.

You do not need to touch the router if for now you are just testing inside the lan. You can change the web port and then access the camera like http://192.168.1.56:9821/ (if the IP on the camera is 192.168.1.56 and the web port is 9821).

 

iVMS-4200 does not use the web port; it uses the data port (by default, 8000). The fact that SADP does not show the unit does not seem good to me.

Hmmm... Could it be that i turned of upnp a while back on the router ? Not sure what importance that has with this problem. I do not understand how jsut changing http port could break this camera.... GRRRRRR. Why would ivms show the camera as described above but not sadp?

 

Do you know of any software or a script I could run which will test every port in a google chrome url incase I am mistaken what it is? I am getting desperate here and am super nervious about this.

Or could I flash a new firmware on to hopefully just reset it to factory settings?

 

 

thanks again for all the help

Well when i get off today my brother should be stopping by with an extra hikvision camera I bought which is same model. I plan on taking it apart and see if there is a reset switch hidden somewhere, but from what i read online there is no reset switch (amazon review said this and one other forum post guy swears he couldnt find one). I am going to teamviewer into my gf network tonight also hopefully so I can see if I can ping the camera and also run a port scanner to see if I am screwing up my number somewhere along the line.

 

I'm curious to see if anyone is able to use SADP after changing the http port (when i first set up the cameras I changed the http port something to soemthing close to 80 and SADP wouldnt connect to that camera but I could via LANIP:PORT#, so not sure why its not workign this time) .

Yes, SADP works even after changing the web port. But I have never used anything as high as 9821, I usually change it to 90, 800, or 8080.

I am guessin you dont want to try it out haha. If your were bored, do vm with windows 8.1 and turn router UPNP off and that is my exact scenerio lol

I teamviewered into my girlfriends computer real quick and ran SADP and the camera shows up intermittantly for a few seconds.I also pinged camera and it responded to all 4 packets sent regardless of if SADP showed it . So i had her check the poe switch and change ethernet port to a camera that is working and still comes up intermitantly. SO i isntalled ivms 4200 on her computer and wouldnt you know it made SADP did not detect any camera(even working working ones) lol , so i delete IVMS 4200 and SADP works again haha. All firewalls off too just to make sure it wasnt affecting it. I also ran port scanner and for some reason the camera when it was intermitantly off SADP, the port scanner couldnt find it but when it came back on then it would find it but it could only find TCP ports 21 and 23 open which are ftp! So what I am thinking is that maybe hikvision has some default setup which relies on those ports and arent effected by firmware for recovery hence the reason TFTP might work and where it gets its name from.

 

I posted this in antoher thread as well but in regards to using TFTP so hopefully this double post is not breaking any rules.

 

Thanks again for all your guys help!

Can anyone help point me in the right direction?

 

I have just bought one of these

 

http://domarsolutions.co.uk/babybullet-zxtech-2-megapixel-ip66-broad-lens-bullet-cctv-camera.html

 

and following the instructions by my router provider changed the http port from 80 to 8081 and now I cant access my camera.

I have tried camera default 192.168.1.168 which was working before I changed the settings and I have tried 192.168.1.168:8081.

 

Now I cant access my camera to change the setting back, how do I find a way in?

HIKVISION DS-2CD2732F-IS. I had the same problem when I used SADP to change the HTTP port from 80 to 2001 then I couldn't access the camera using using http://IP:2001

 

EASY WORK AROUND = if you didn't change the HTTPS Port then you will still be able to access the camera using https://IP:443 [ignore the security warning] , login and change the HTTP Port back to 80 until a better resolution is found.

You can still set up port forwarding from a unique External port to port 80 for the IP address of the camera.

 

If someone does find a real resolution then please let me know!

I experience this exact same issue. Anyone have ideas? There must be something easy missing...

 

- Camera working fine

- Change port from admin screen

- Can no longer access camera in any way

- Camera shows briefly on SADP with new port listed, then drops...shows again, then drops

- Need to do a physical reset to access camera again

 

Does this on all my Hikvision bullets. ??

- I had similar problem, the mistake was not changing the default ip of the camera.

Without changing camera IP, I couldn't have accessed it to big in with

Hey,

 

I have the same problem with the CD2132. Changed IP to 192.168.1.12 --> worked Fine.

Changed port to 8001=> cannot connect anymore.

Is there something that i'm missing?

Does anyone have a solution?

Did you try SADP tool to connect? If you can't connect, you may need to use the TFTP method to reinstall your firmware, but you may open up a whole new can of worms if yours is a Chinese camera.

First I would try the company you bought the camera from for the correct firmware.

Wow , seems like a bug to me ? I have exactly the same ... when changing the http port to something like 8155, I can't access the camera anymore on http://IP:8155

 

I tried a lower port # like 90, and this works

 

Really weird, but seems like the camera doesn't like higher numbers

Thanks for the reply

port 9821 is not an HTTP port... HTTP ports are 80, 8000, 8001 and 8080. 9000 ports are normally for video chat or video conferencing. It may be that that port was assigned to something else when you assigned it to the camera and now youre getting a conflict. reassign the port to 8080
