Diamond Recorder || SSH Into a Diamond Recorder

 

Sometimes, you will come cross installers that would like to SSH into a Diamond recorder either because they want to see the inner workings of the DVR/NVR, they want to change some stuff in there that they think would benefit them.

SSH or sometimes called "Telnetting'" is a network protocol that lets you access a computer securely over an unsecured network. Typical applications include remote command line, login, and remote command execution, but any network service can be secured by using SSH.

cat /proc/interrupts

cat /proc/meminfo

cat /proc/devices

cat /proc/net-dev

cat /proc/uptime

 

These are just the few examples of the very limited pre-chosen commands one can run inside the protective shell. 

 

Now, to login trough SSH into a device, you first have to prepend the password, meaning place this command IN FRONT of the password of the recorder/camera:

 

7ujMko0

 

So if a recorder's password is for example ENS12345, you should type the password as such, 

7ujMko0ENS12345

The command should let you enter protective shell.
