Answer

Stealth Mode was introduced to enhance security by blocking discovery protocols while still allowing IP-based access, reducing camera visibility to potential intruders.

This functionality is off by default and can be configured via Configuration Manager (CM), only reversible through a factory reset.

 

Deactivates with only one tick box:

  • port 1800

    • ONVIF discovery

    • RCP+ discovery

  • ping response via Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP)

Note: that clients connected to the camera before Stealth Mode is enabled can still communicate with the device.

 

Disabling Stealth Mode

Factory default of the camera is needed for this!

  • Stealth button is handy, and yes if the device is in stealth mode BVMS will not scan it.

    • You can still manually add it.

  • Scanning Software: Nessus still does a full scan and produces the same certs issues as a manual Lock Down

  • NMAP still scans and does a full diagnostic.

So, the stealth mode button, only does a partial lock down (no Certificate) and it only affects CPP14 and up.
