In this article, we will show you how to access a Hikvision NVR or DVR using IPv6. Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) is the latest revision of the Internet Protocol (IP) and the first version of the protocol to be widely deployed.

IPv6 was developed by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) to deal with the long-anticipated problem of IPv4 address exhaustion.

We will access the NVR or the DVR via the web browser (Internet Explorer) and the iVMS-4200 camera management software. So before you start, make sure you have downloaded the latest version of the iVMS-4200 and have it installed on your computer.

Also, make sure that the Hikvision NVR/DVR on IPv6 is available in the same network segment as your computer. At the same time, IPv6 address of NVR/DVR is unalterable.

Step 1. Get the IPv6 address of NVR/DVR directly from the recorder (Configuration > Network Settings) or through the SADP tool.

Step 2. Type the IPv6 address into the URL address bar of the web browser (use Internet Explorer). Check the picture below, type exactly the same way.
