WPS-100-DVR-8CH Installation and Users Manual
9.3.3 NETWORK
The Network Setup allows the administrator to setup all Ethernet network related parameters. Consultation with
the network administrator may be required to set these parameters correctly.
The following is a brief description for each item in this menu and its specific operations:
• Net Type
Select the type of network connection of the DVR to the network (DHCP, Static IP or PPPoE). DHCP is enabled
by default but a Static IP is recommended.
• IP Address
Enter an Ethernet IP address for the DVR. This address should be static and not conflict with any other IP address
on the LAN.
• Net Mask
Enter the Net Mask for the IP address.
• Gateway
Enter the Gateway IP address for the system.
• DNS
If using DNS, enter the Domain Name Server address for the system. (Same address as Default Gateway)
• Username
If PPPoE is used, enter the username for the system.
• Password
If PPPoE is used, enter the password for the system.
• DDNS Type
Starting with Version 7.75.53 a new selection will appear for WirepathDNS. It is strongly recommended that this
option is used to simplify configuration.
Using the WirepathDNS is easy. Select WirepathDNS from the list and enter the client name or other unique
string in the URL. When exiting the Network menu, confirm the changes. A DDNS service is setup automatically.
See IE Interface Setup in Appendix E – WirepathDNS Setup for details on using WirepathDNS.
• URL
Enter the DDNS URL if DDNS is used. – Enter Client Name or System Name to identify the DVR.
