• IP Address Configuration:
-. Obtain IP address via DHCP - Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a protocol
that lets network administrators centrally manage and automate the assignment of IP
addresses on a network. DHCP is enabled by default. Although a DHCP server is mostly
used to set an IP address dynamically, it is also possible to use it to set a static, known
IP address for a particular MAC address.
-. Use the following IP address - To use a static IP address for the VK2-540VRD, check the
radio button and then make the following settings:
* IP address - Specify a unique IP address for your VK2-540VRD.
* Subnet mask - Specify the mask for the subnet the VK2-540VRD is located on.
* Default router - Specify the IP address of the default router (gateway) used for
connecting devices attached to different networks and network segments.
• IPv6 Address Configuration
Check this box to enable IPv6. Other settings for IPv6 are configured in the network router.
• DNS Configuration
DNS (Domain Name Service) provides the translation of host names to IP addresses on
your network.
-. Obtain DNS Server via DHCP - Automatically use the DNS server settings provided by
the DHCP server. Click the View button to see the current settings.
-. Use the following DNS server address to enter the desired DNS server by specifying the
following:
* Domain name - enter the domain(s) to search for the host name used by the VK2-
540VRD. Multiple domains can be separated by semicolons (;). The host name is always
the first part of a Fully Qualified Domain Name, for example, myserver is the host name
in the Fully Qualified Domain Name
myserver.mycompany.com
where mycompany.com
is the Domain name.
* DNS servers - enter the IP addresses of the primary and secondary DNS servers.
• Host Name Configuration
-. Host Name – enter the host name to be used as device information in the client
software or SmartManager.
• Services
-. HTTP port: Enter a port to receive a service through the HTTP. Default Port Number is
‘80’.
-. RTSP port: Enter a port to receive a service through the RTSP. Default Port Number is
‘7070’.
-. PTZ port: Enter a port to control the Pan/Tilt/Zoom. Default Port Number is ‘7000’.
• ARP/Ping Setting
-. Enable ARP/Ping setting of IP address - The IP address can be set using the ARP/Ping
method, which associates the unit's MAC address with an IP address. Check this box to
enable the service.
Leave disabled to prevent unintentional resetting of the IP address.
