  • On the router, port forward all the Hikvision ports (mentioned above) on UDP and TCP protocol. Double check to ensure all the ports are open.
  • Make sure stream encryption is turned off or box unchecked. To do so, go to the settings under Network, then Platform Access and then uncheck the box above the verification code.
  • It has been reported that changing the local configuration to UDP fixes the issue. Access your Hikvision NVR/DVR or IP camera, and go to Configuration > Local. Set the protocol to UDP. Click Save. Try again if you can see the cameras.Hikvision error code 401 HCNetSDK.dll[401]
