Model IP901 Weatherproof Day/Night Network IP Camera

3.3. Network
The Network page allows you to modify the network settings of the wired Ethernet. The
default settings use DHCP to obtain an IP address automatically. In most of the home network
environment, there is a DHCP server running. In this situation, by using these default settings,
the IP CAM can work immediately in most of the time.
If the Ethernet cable is unplugged, the IP CAM will lose connection. But as soon as the
Ethernet cable is plugged in again, the IP CAM will obtain a new IP address immediately.

If the network environment does not support DHCP function or you have a Static IP
address, you will need to set the network settings of the IP CAM manually. Please fill all the
fields including “IP address”, “Subnet mask”, “Default gateway” and “DNS server” to let the
network work. All these settings must be correct for your network environment, otherwise the IP
CAM can not work. If you are not sure about the IP setting, please contact your Internet Service
Provider for further help.
The default setting is “Obtain an IP address automatically”.
