5.2.1. Network Settings
Select the menu “Basic network settings” for users to change the information like IP address, gateway, port,
and DDNS, etc.
Network interface parameters
Configure the camera’s IP address, sub-network mask, gateway, DNS and backup DNS. After completing the
configuration, it is required to save the configuration in the “Advanced settings” and restart the camera.
This device supports DHCP protocol (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol). DHCP is a network protocol for
LAN. Using UDP protocol is to automatically assign IP addresses for internal network devices. After starting
DHCP, the network camera can automatically obtain an IP address via DHCP server in the network (e.g. router,
three-tier switch or NVR, etc. It is required to start DHCP in server.). The DHCP service end can be set to be
automatic assignment (Once a DHCP user end successfully rents the IP address at the first time and will use the
address forever.), or dynamic assignment (when the DHCP user end successfully rents the IP address, the address
is not permanent. The user end must release the IP address when the lease is invalid so that other devices can use
the address.). The setting in detail can refer to the manual of router or switch.
The system default IP is 192.168.1.4. Users can freely assign IP address, sub-network mask and gateway, etc.,
for the camera. However, they must be in the same network segment as that of the local machine’s IP. Wrong
settings may cause unsuccessful connection with the network camera. Especially after starting DHCP, it is only
able to retrieve the network camera IP address via Admin Tools provided with the device.

Remote alarm receiving center
After enabling the remote alarm receiving center, users can receive the information like status and alarm
from the management center. The information is sent actively by the network camera toward the management
center. This function defaults to be off. If enabling the function, users are required to input the address and port
of the server of the management center. The port of the management center defaults to be 5005.
