Network Settings

IP Address The airCam Dome can obtain an IP address

automatically from a DHCP server or be configured with

a static IP address. By default, the camera looks to obtain

an IP address automatically. If the airCam Dome doesn’t

obtain an IP address from a DHCP server, the default DHCP

Fallback IP of 192.168.1.20 is assigned to it.

• DHCP Choose this option to obtain a dynamic IP

Address, Netmask, Gateway and DNS address from the

local DHCP server.

- DHCP Fallback IP Enter an IP address for the airCam

Dome to use if a DHCP server is not found.

- DHCP Fallback Netmask Enter the Netmask for the

airCam Dome to use if a DHCP server is not found.

• Static Select this option to assign a static IP address to

the airCam Dome.

Note: IP Address and Netmask settings should

be consistent with the address space of the

network segment where the device resides.

- IP Address Enter the IP address of the airCam Dome.

This IP will be used for device management purposes.

- Netmask This is a value which when expanded into

binary provides a mapping to define which portions

of IP address groups can be classified as host devices

and network devices. Netmask defines the address

space of the network segment where the device

resides. 255.255.255.0 (or /24) Netmask is commonly

used on many C Class IP networks.

- Gateway IP Typically, this is the IP address of the host

router which provides the point of connection to the

Internet. This can be a DSL Modem, Cable Modem, or

a WISP Gateway Router. The airCam Dome will direct

the packets of data to the gateway if the destination

host is not within the local network.
