Connect to the Admin panel
Connect via persistent static IP address
Your VGADVI Recorder Pro has a default persistent static IP address, also known as the
recovery IP address
.
If ever you need to set it up on a network that does not support DHCP, or you need to recover from a
previous static IP address setting, you can use this method to connect directly to the system for
configuration.
To perform this procedure you will need a workstation computer for which you are able to modify network
settings.
The VGADVI Recorder Pro is pre-configured with the following static address defaults:
l
IP Address:
192.168.255.250
l
Netmask:
255.255.255.252
l
Username:
admin
l
Password:
your admin password (by default set to no password)
To access the VGADVI Recorder Pro's Admin panel via the persistent static IP address:
1. Establish an Ethernet connection between the VGADVI Recorder Pro and the workstation by one of the
following methods:
a. Connect the system to a local Ethernet network shared with the workstation.
b. Connect the system directly to the workstation’s Ethernet port using either a regular or a
crossover Ethernet cable.
2. Record the network settings of the workstation being used to connect to the VGADVI Recorder Pro so
that they can be restored later.
3. Temporarily change the network configuration on the workstation to the following:
a. Use Static IP assignment
b. IP address: 192.168.255.249
c. Subnet mask: 255.255.255.252
