AXIS 282/AXIS 282A - System Options
Network - Basic TCP/IP Settings
IP Address Configuration
Your Axis network camera supports both IP version 4 and IP version 6. Both versions may
be enabled simultaneously, and at least one version must always be enabled.
When using IPv4, the IP address can be set automatically via DHCP,
or a static IP address
can be set manually.
If IPv6 is enabled, your camera will receive an IP address according to the con
figuration in
the network router.
There are also options for setting up notificatio
n of changes in the IP address, and for
using the AXIS Internet Dynamic DNS Service. For more information on setting the IP
address, please see the online help.
The IP address of the Video Server
can be set automatically via DHCP, or a fixed IP address
can be set manually. DHCP is enabled by default. To use a fixed IP address, you must also
enter the correct subnet mask and default router.
Notes:
•DHCP is a protocol for automatic IP address assignment on a network. IP address assign-
ment via DHCP may lead to the situation where the IP address changes and you lose con-
tact. Configure the options for notification of IP address change (under Services) to receive
notification from the Video Server when the IP address changes.
•Alternatively, if your DHCP server can update a DNS server, you can access the AXIS
282/AXIS 282A by host name which is always the same, regardless of the IP address.
