Figure 52. The ethernet settings menu
An ethernet connection can be used to connect to the unit from a PC for the viewing of live or recorded images.
Use this menu to configure the Ethernet communications settings. Select from the following:
•
Ethernet:

DHCP:
Select Enable or Disable. Enables dynamic IP addressing. When DHCP is enabled, the IP
address, Subnet Mask, Gateway, and Server fields are dynamically addressed.
•
Name Service:
Select from Disable, WINS or GnuDIP. Enabling WINS registers the hostname and IP
address within the current Network. This ensures that you can connect to the VSR by hostname within
the network. See
x
for information on configuring Dynamic DDS with GnuDIP.
•
IP Address / Subnet Mask / Gateway:
Consult with a qualified Network Administrator or an MIS
professional to configure these settings if DHCP is not enabled.

Servers. Not required if DHCP is enabled.

Hostname:
The default Hostname is the unit’s serial number without the dashes. The user should
modify only when GnuDIP is selected in the Name Service field.

Select the Dynamic Domain Name Server interval. Select from Disable or from
1 to 1440 minutes.
