NIC Settings
NIC Type: If you are connecting this recorder to an older, slower
network, you can customize the interface to minimize the
bandwidth use if needed.
We recommend leaving this set to Auto, which identifies your
system and adjusts operation automatically.
IPv4 Address: This is the IP address of your recorder, which is
needed to allow you to access the system remotely, and to use the
Luma mobile application. If you will be accessing your system
remotely, be sure to deselect DHCP. You cannot use the Internet to
access your system if DHCP is enabled.
DHCP: Clicking this enables your network to assign IP addresses as
needed to link with other IP devices. While DHCP is active, most of
the boxes on this page are deactivated, as they may be changed by
the system as needed.
Once the recorder is linked, deselect this box to ensure the recorder
has an unchanging IP address. This allows you to use the web
interface and mobile utility to access your system.
IPv4 Subnet Mask: If you need to edit this to connect to your
network, contact your IT administrator.
IPv4 Default Gateway: This holds the address of your router, once
the recorder has found the router and established a connection.
IPv6 Address: This entry cannot be changed, but is included for
informational purposes (and to allow forward compatibility with
future systems).
IPv6 Default Gateway: This entry cannot be changed. It will display
your router’s address if your router is IPv6 capable.
MAC Address: This entry cannot be edited. It provides the
information on the device’s unique identity code, so your router can
identify it even if the IP address changes due to DHCP.
MTU: This entry displays the largest packet of data the unit is
