Working mode:
Multi-address Mode: The parameters of the two NIC cards can be configured
independently. You can select LAN1 or LAN2 in the NIC type field for parameter settings. You
can select one NIC card as default route. And then the system is connecting with the extranet
and the data will be forwarded through the default route.
Net-fault Tolerance Mode: The two NIC cards use the same IP address, and you can
select the Main NIC to LAN1 or LAN2. By this way, in case of one NIC card failure, the video
recorder will automatically enable the other standby NIC card so as to ensure the normal
running of the whole system.

of the total bandwidth, which enables the system to provide two Gigabit network capacity.
NIC Type: Select NIC Type as your desire.

IP address and other network settings from that server.
