2.2.3. Router Configuration
If your DVR is connected to the network through a router, you should configure router properly.
There are 3 steps as follows.
1. WAN Setting 2. DHCP Setting 3. Virtual Server Setting
2.2.3.1. WAN Setting
When you connect to your Router,
you can find menu for WAN setting.
Please confirm the WAN setting. If
you are using DSL service, you
should select PPPoE, and you will be
directed to a sub-menu to type in
DSL user name and password.
2.2.3.2. DHCP & IP Address Setting
To assign an unique private IP address
to DVR in your intranet environment
automatically, you can enable DHCP
option in the Network Setup menu of
your DVR and your Router. In this
case, you can skip the procedures
described on this page.
We recommend assigning IP address
to DVR manually to prevent
unexpected change of IP address.
If you have any problem with DHCP function or want to assign the private IP address, please disable
DHCP option in the Network Setup menu of your DVR and check the starting and ending IP used by DHCP
server of the Router.
You can assign any private IP address to your DVR even if it is out of the DHCP
range, but the IP address should match with the one entered in the Network Setup menu of your DVR.
*A router from D-Link is quoted as an example in this manual. The images of setup menu above may not always match
another router’s setup menu.
