A persistent IP address is assigned permanently. Its validity is unlimited.
Notice
Please ensure a valid combination of IP address and subnet mask.
IP range: Subnet mask:
0.0.0.0 – 127.255.255.255 255.0.0.0
128.0.0.0 – 191.255.255.255 255.255.0.0

These combinations are not checked by Baumer GAPI, Baumer GAPI Viewer or camera
on the fly. This check is performed when restarting the camera, in case of an invalid
IP - subnet combination the camera will start in LLA mode.
* This feature is disabled by default.
8.6.2 DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
The DHCP automates the assignment of network parameters such as IP addresses, sub-
net masks and gateways. This process takes up to 12 s.
Once the device (client) is connected to a DHCP-enabled network, four steps are processed:
▪ DHCP Discovery
In order to find a DHCP server, the client sends a so called DHCPDISCOVER broad-
cast to the network.
▪ DHCP Offer
After reception of this broadcast, the DHCP server will answer the request by a
unicast, known as DHCPOFFER. This message contains several items of information,
such as:
Information for the client
MAC address
offered IP address
Information on server
IP address
subnet mask
duration of the lease
Internet Protocol:
