The present invention relates to a data processing technique and, more particularly, to a remote video surveillance management system for use in a communication network.

With the emphasis on privacy and security for individuals, as well as network communication systems such as remote Internet or regional networks, and the enhancement of hardware and software technology and performance and performance of communication terminal devices such as personal computers and mobile phones. . The user can already perform remote environmental monitoring through the network communication system, and can further transmit video information through the network communication system to care for the family's work schedule.

Specifically, the user can install a network monitoring device at home, such as a network camera, which can be directly connected to the network communication system, or connected to a personal computer at home, and then Connect to the network communication system by the personal computer. Because the webcam lens or the PC itself has a specific IP address. Therefore, users who are not at home can connect to the network communication system through another personal computer, notebook computer or mobile phone with network communication function, and then connect to the specific IP address, and then from the far side. The image or sound message captured by the web camera lens is obtained.

The above-mentioned conventional security monitoring technology can enable the user to obtain the immediate environmental condition and even the family's work situation from the remote end, and provides the convenience of the user's safety monitoring. However, the conventional security monitoring technology still has the following disadvantages and needs to be improved.

First, for network security, the far-end video surveillance management system is used to monitor the environmental status of a specific area, usually involving the privacy of the users of the monitored area. The known far-end video surveillance management system only uses the account number and password as the user authority identification mechanism. Please refer to Figure 1, because unauthorized users can use Internet Protocol (IP) scanning and port scanning to find out, for example, IP cameras (IP) through the Internet. Camera; IP cam) The IP and Port of the network monitoring device, and then use the account and password generator to log into the network monitoring device, and then obtain the video surveillance data that should be obtained only by the authorized user.

Secondly, for bandwidth usage, the network video surveillance used by the conventional far-end video surveillance management system only uses the bandwidth of the existing connection network to achieve the network function it adds, instead of Considering the network usage behavior of the client, if the bandwidth of the connection network is dedicated for network video surveillance, there is no need to worry about the network bandwidth problem. If the network bandwidth is shared, when the client performs the remote During monitoring, the network application, Peer-to-Peer (P2P), and instant messaging software, which are located at the remote end of the client and/or the local end of the network monitoring device, are mutually preemptive. width. In addition, the conventional far-end video surveillance management system mostly supports more than 8 clients to perform remote monitoring. However, if the far-end video surveillance management system uses a lower network bandwidth, the above problem of insufficient bandwidth will be more problematic. serious.

Furthermore, in terms of device addressing, the network monitoring device of the conventional far-end video surveillance management system uses floating IP and utilizes such as Ethernet. A network dialer such as Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) is connected to the Internet. However, even if the network monitoring device is connected to the network, the remote client cannot know the IP and port of the network monitoring device, and the video monitoring data of the network monitoring device cannot be obtained from the remote connection. The conventional solution is to use the Dynamic Domain Name Server (DDNS) mechanism to solve this problem, but because DDNS has no standards, the DDNS mechanism used by network monitoring devices of different brands may have difference. Therefore, if the client has a network monitoring device of a different brand, it will cause the problem that the management is not easy to use by using multiple different DDNS login mechanisms at the same time. In addition, when the network monitoring device manufacturer no longer provides maintenance or maintenance to the DDNS, the user may have to replace the network monitoring device.
