Serial Number vs. Device ID

Description

This article will go over the differences between a Serial Number, and a Device ID.

A serial number is a sequence of numbers used to identify a specific product. For Dahua devices, this serial number is also used when accessing the system remotely via P2P. Dahua recorders and cameras do not have a Device ID.

A Device ID is used primarily for P2P access on FLIR recorders and cameras.

Serial Number:

  • For Dahua devices, this serial number is used when accessing the system remotely via P2P.
  • Serial Number is also used by Dahua Technology USA's Technical Support team to verify devices were purchased through authorized resellers.

Device ID:

  • For FLIR Device, used primarily for P2P access via SmartPSS, iDMSS, or gDMSS.
  • Dahua devices do not have a Device ID
