I have a customer that has five public ip's.He wants to use them to access some camera's and a server that records calls.We can get the equipment that he needs I just need some help programming them.

If anybody is interested send me a pm.

I would think that where ever you get the eq. from can offer tech support.

He really just needs one IP to access the server. I am assuming he is going to use the server to access individual cameras. basically he uses port forwarding through the router to get to the server. Just about an IT guy should be able to set this up for you.

I can even put it in the dmz.I read up a little and it looks like I just static the public ip on the server does this sound right or am I way off.

Depending on the router. An AT&T DSL/router will assign a public IP when you select a device as DMZ. Most other routers it just means forward all packets through NAT of the current public IP through the router.

You could assign a public IP to a device if either the router is able to pass that IP address through the router or if you were able to bypass the router all together.

If you have home or a small business router, they likely can not have multiple public IP addresses assigned to them.

As Z-man said, it is more common to use the one public IP address already assigned to the network and port forward the ports to each device. Many DVRs will use port 80 (http), which could interfere with te routers interface or if you have another website running.
