Chapter 6 Network Function Settings Description 

6.1 

Connecting Camera to Network 

6.1.1 Connecting to Internet 

Two common connection methods are shown below 
1. Connecting via switch or router 

 

 

 

2. To connect directly through network cable, the IP address of the computer should be 

changed so that it is on the same network segment as the camera 

e.g.: The factory-preset default IP address of VC-A71P is 192.168.100.100. The 
computer IP address must be set with the same network segment, such as 
192.168.100.101, so that the computer can be connected correctly with the camera
