Thank you for the update but I'm getting this error
Hello!
The reasons associated with this message can vary. Here are the main possible scenarios:
Weak signal on the server side:
If the connection between the server and the cameras is unstable or the signal is too weak (e.g., due to network or router issues, both on the server side and the client side),
this can lead to failures in establishing a connection.
Camera blocks the connection:
Some cameras may use built-in security features, such as a firewall. This can happen if the client's IP address is blocked or if the camera's settings restrict access.
Specifics of working with routers and NAT:
If the cameras are behind a router with port forwarding enabled, a scan might show that a port (e.g., 8000) is open on the router. However, this does not always mean
the camera is accessible. If the camera is turned off, the router forwards requests but does not receive a response, which can lead to such errors.
The port is used by another device or service:
Port 8000 may be occupied by another active device or service on the host. For example, this could be a server or another network application running on the same IP address.
In this case, IPCamCluster "sees" open ports, but these ports do not belong to IP cameras.
! It is important to understand that the IPCambruter program recognizes only the following types of server responses:
- Successful requests (200 OK: The request was successfully processed)
- Client errors (404 Not Found: The resource could not be found)
- Server errors (500 Internal Server Error: The server was unable to process the request)
In your case, the message "Failed to establish connection to the services!" may also appear in the event of unsuccessful authorization, such as when the brute-forcing tool fails
to find the correct username or password.
