IP Address
The airCam Mini can obtain an IP address
automatically from a DHCP server or be configured with
a static IP address. By default, the camera looks to obtain
an IP address automatically. If the airCam Mini doesn’t
obtain an IP address from a DHCP server, the default DHCP
Fallback IP of 192.168.1.20 is assigned to it.
•
DHCP
Choose this option to obtain a dynamic IP
Address, Netmask, Gateway and DNS address from the
local DHCP server.
-
DHCP Fallback IP
Enter an IP address for the airCam
Mini to use if a DHCP server is not found.
-
DHCP Fallback Netmask
Enter the Netmask for the
airCam Mini to use if a DHCP server is not found.
•
Static
Select this option to assign a static IP address to
the airCam Mini.
Note:
IP Address and Netmask settings should
be consistent with the address space of the
network segment where the device resides.
-
IP Address
Enter the IP address of the airCam Mini.
This IP will be used for device management purposes.
-
Netmask
This is a value which when expanded into
binary provides a mapping to define which portions
of IP address groups can be classified as host devices
and network devices. Netmask defines the address
space of the network segment where the device
resides. 255.255.255.0 (or /24) Netmask is commonly
used on many C Class IP networks.
-
Gateway IP
Typically, this is the IP address of the host
router which provides the point of connection to the
Internet. This can be a DSL Modem, Cable Modem, or
a WISP Gateway Router. The airCam Mini will direct
the packets of data to the gateway if the destination
host is not within the local network.
