Addressing in a Videomesh Wireless Network
Every Videomesh
TM
unit comes with a factory-set unique IP address for the
wireless interfaces in the flowing format:
5.
a
.
b
.
c
The value of
a
,
b
and
c
are unique for every Videomesh Router manufactured
and they form the Videomesh
primary serial number
. This
wireless IP
cannot be
changed by the user and it is independent from the mode of operation: it does
not change if the unit is in camera/relay or gateway mode.
At the same time, every Videomesh has different IP addresses for the different
wired Ethernet interfaces. The way these addresses are assigned changes if the
router is in camera/relay or gateway mode.
Camera/relay mode:
In camera/relay mode, all the IP addresses are assigned
to the router. The IP address of the router cannot be changed. The IP addresses
of the cameras attached to the router can be changed in the advanced interface
settings. The default IP addresses are assigned according to the following
convention.
The first Ethernet interface gets the following network settings:
IP Address:
1.0.0.1
Netmask:
255.0.0.0
The second Ethernet interface gets the following network settings:
IP Address:
2.0.0.1
Netmask:
255.0.0.0
