Paisan IP camera

Initial setup of IP cameras starts by isolating the device from the main network and connecting it to a separate segment or directly to a laptop to avoid IP conflicts and prevent accidental external access. Identify the factory IP address and default credentials and change them right away. In large systems the same password can be used within an isolated subnet for easier management, but different passwords should be set for remote access.

RTSP Address of Paisan IP camera

RTSP is a standard protocol for streaming video and audio over a network. It lets the camera connect to a recorder or software without vendor apps. The URL usually looks like rtsp://login:password@IP:554/path_to_stream. You can find it in the documentation, the web interface, or with SmartVision or ONVIF Device Manager.







ONVIF vs RTSP: What’s the Difference?

People often confuse ONVIF with video streaming — but ONVIF doesn’t transmit video at all.

Paisan compatible software

Assign a static IP address from a dedicated range, place cameras in a separate VLAN, and block direct Internet access if cloud features are not used. Use SmartVison to find Paisan IP camera on network. Disable UPnP, DDNS, auto-updates, and any unused protocols for security reason. If the camera does not support RTSP, check if you can enable it in settings. Try HTTP streaming if supported. If not, replace the camera with a model that supports RTSP or ONVIF.

SmartVision brings simplicity and intelligence to security with its AI-powered VMS. It’s easy to use, provides real-time motion detection, and gives you remote access to your cameras. Here’s what users are saying:
  • What really sets SmartVision apart is its ease of use. As someone who isn't particularly tech-savvy, I needed something simple yet powerful. I was able to get everything up and running in a matter of hours, and I haven't looked back since. The interface is clean and straightforward, and I never feel lost when navigating through the software.
    Jonathan Perry
  • I used to be concerned about the vulnerability of IP cameras being directly exposed to the internet. With my old setup, I had to manually configure port forwarding and deal with complex network settings, which always felt risky. SmartVision eliminates these security concerns by providing a safe, secure connection without requiring me to expose my cameras directly to the internet. The system takes care of everything behind the scenes, making it easy for me to monitor my property without worrying about potential hacks or data breaches.
