NOTE: Enable DHCP Function: This function can only work if the LAN, which the unit is
connected to, has a DHCP server. If the DHCP server is working, the IP Camera
will obtain an IP address automatically from the DHCP server.
NOTE: When only one unit of the IP Camera is connected to a computer or LAN, you can
freely assign an IP address for the IP Camera. For example, there is a range of IP
Camera IP addresses from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.255. You can pick one for use
from the range of the IP. It’s not necessary to set MASK and GATEWAY; leave the
settings as default.
When an IP Camera is connected to a WAN, you must acquire a unique,
permanent IP address and correctly configure the MASK and GATEWAY settings
according to your network architecture. If you have any questions regarding
those settings, please consult a qualified MIS professional or your ISP.
