IP configuration
"Get IP address automatically" & “Use fixed IP address”
The default status is “Get IP address automatically”. This can be tedious to perform
software installation whenever the Network Camera starts. Therefore, once the network
is started, especially for the IP address should be entered correctly. Select “Use fixed IP
address” then the Network Camera will skip installation. The Network Camera can
automatically restart and operate normally after a power outage. User can run IP installer
to check the IP address assigned to the Network Camera if the IP address is forgotten,
or user can use the UPnP function provided by the Network Camera (MS Windows XP
provides UPnP function at My Network Place).
“ IP address” This is necessary for network identification.
“Subnet mask” This is used to determine if the destination is in the same subnet. The
default value is “255.255.255.0”.
“Default router” This is the gateway used to forward frames to destinations in a
different subnet. Invalid router setting will fail the transmission to destinations in
different subnet.
“Primary DNS” The primary domain name server translates hostnames into IP
addresses.
“Secondary DNS” Secondary domain name server backups the Primary DNS.
NOTE: Some invalid settings may cause the system failing to respond. Change the
configuration only if necessary and consult with your network supervisor or
experienced users for correct settings.
