Configuring the IP Network Settings Automatically or Manually
Note When you see the Limited/No connectivity button ( ), you cannot fully
connect to the device because the discovered device is on a different subnet
from your PC. Check your network settings for both the device and your PC to
resolve this issue. Consult your network administrator for additional support.
The IP network setting details, such as device name, IP address, and subnet mask can be
configured for each connected device either automatically or manually.
Note It is important to click Apply to save any configuration change.
Table 3-4 IP Network Device Setting Options
Option Description
Device Name By default, the device name is the device type plus the MAC Address. Honeywell
recommends, for security, that you change the device name.
MAC Address The MAC address is a factory-assigned address that is unique for each device.
IP Address The IP address of the device on the network.The camera obtains an IP address
by static or dynamic (automatic) means. There are two options: DHCP (dynamic),
assigned by the user, or APIPA (static), assigned by the network.
Subnet Mask The subnet mask, or netmask, value of the device on the network. IP networks
can be divided into several smaller networks by subnetting. When a network is
subnetted, you must specify a subnet mask, which tells network devices which
smaller network they belong to.
Note If the subnet mask is not properly configured, the camera might not be
able to communicate with other devices on the network.
Default Gateway The default gateway address that connects the device to the network. Enter the
IP address of the host to use as a gateway between networks. The gateway
allows communication between devices that are on different networks. Without a
correct gateway setting, the camera cannot receive or transmit data from or to
devices that are not in the same network address range.
