Configuring the Camera with a Static IP Address
N
ETWORKING PAGE
Caution
Consult your IT department before editing network settings. Errors in network configuration can make the
camera inaccessible from the network. Do not change DHCP/Static addressing, IP address, subnet mask,
or gateway unless you are very familiar with the characteristics and configuration of the network where you
install the camera.
By default, the camera is set to DHCP and you do not need to configure it with a static IP address.
However, if no DHCP server is available to automatically assign an address, the camera will use the
default IP address of 169.254.1.1. If this is the case, you may need to follow this procedure.
The Quick-Connect USB is also set to DHCP by default. If no DHCP server is available to automatically
assign an address, the Quick-Connect USB uses the same default IP address as the camera: 169.254.1.1.
The Quick-Connect USB Mini uses the IP address 169.254.1.1, and cannot be configured with a different
IP address.
If you install more than one camera on a network that does not automatically assign IP addresses (a non-
DHCP network), follow this procedure to prevent IP address conflicts.
If you answer YES to any of these questions, you will need to follow this procedure.
