4.2.2 Set IP Address
You need to set an IP address for the unit if the LAN unit isn’t connected to a DHCP server.
Otherwise, please follow the instructions given below:
Set the
IP
,
MASK
and
GATEWAY
. The following is a sample setting.
IP:
192.168.1.X
MASK: 255.255.255.0
GATEWAY:
0.0.0.0
NOTE: When only one unit of the Video Server is connected to a computer or LAN, you
can freely assign an IP address for the Video Server. For example, there is a
range of Video Server 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 a Video Server 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.
NOTE: When connecting to a network, each connected Video Server must be assigned a
unique IP, which must be in the same class type as your network address. IP
addresses are written as four sets of numbers separated by periods; for example,
192.168.1.1 Therefore, if the connected network is identified as Class C, for
example, the first three sets of numbers of the Video Server IP address must be
the same as in the network address. If the connected network is identified as
Class B, the first two sets of numbers of the Video Server IP address must be the
same as in the network address. If you have any questions regarding these
settings, please consult a qualified MIS professional or your ISP.
