Changing Stream Setting
7.
Repeat these steps until all Encoders are connected to the network and configured with an appropriate
Stream
number.
NOTE:
Each Encoder’s Stream number must be unique to all other Encoders on the network.
NOTE:
Screen-by-screen descriptions of the web interface options are provided for your reference in the Encoder Configuration
Options
section on page 23
and the Decoder Configuration Options
section on page 44
.
Step 4: Configuring Decoder and Encoder IP addresses (if needed)
By default, all Decoders and Encoders are preset to
DHCP
mode. When first connected to the network, an IP address is assigned
automatically based on the network DHCP server. If no DHCP server is found, the unit will use
Auto IP
mode (with an IP address
pre-configured to 169.254.xxx.xxx with a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0).
How IP Address Changes Affect Unit Control
As discussed previously, N-Able control is dependent upon the host computer being in the same IP address range as the N-Series
devices. Therefore, before making any N2400 IP address changes, we recommend having
two statically-assigned IP addresses on
your computer
.
Configure the first IP address to be in the range of the default N-Series IP settings (i.e., in the 169.254.xxx.xxx range), AND
Configure a second IP address in the range of the IP address you are planning to assign to the units (or when using DHCP,
an address within the defined range for your network).
