How to set up remote viewing on your Dahua NVR

Getting connected with DMSS

The fastest way to view your Dahua NVR remotely is the DMSS app over P2P — no port forwarding required. Scan the QR code on the recorder, add the serial number, and the app tunnels the connection through Dahua's cloud.

For installers who prefer a direct connection, we cover manual port forwarding and DDNS later in the guide, including the exact TCP and HTTP ports to open on a typical home router.
