1.2

Establishing the connection

The camera must have a valid IP address to operate on your 

network and a compatible subnet mask. By default, DHCP is 

pre-set at the factory to 

ON

 and so your DHCP server assigns an 

IP address. With no DHCP server the default address is 

192.168.0.1

1.

Start the Web browser.

2.

Enter the IP address of the camera as the URL. 

3.

During initial installation, confirm any security questions 

that appear.

Note:

If you do not connect, the camera may have reached its 

maximum number of connections. Depending on the device and 

network configuration, each camera can have up to 25 web 

browser connections, or up to 50 connections via Bosch Video 

Client or Bosch Video Management System.

1.2.1

Password protection in camera

A camera offers the option of limiting access across various 

authorization levels. If the camera is password-protected, a 

message to enter the password appears. 

1.

Enter the user name and the associated password in the 

appropriate fields.

2.

Click 

OK

. If the password is correct, the desired page is 

displayed.

1.3

Protected network

If a RADIUS server is used for network access control (802.1x 

authentication), the camera must be configured first. To 

configure the camera, connect it directly to a computer using a 

network cable and configure the two parameters, 

Identity

 and 

Password

. Only after these have been configured can 

communication with the camera via the network occur.
