Configuring the Internal DHCP Server
If you plan to connect other network devices to the HD Video Appliance, you may need to set up the
appliance to be a DHCP server. Some network devices rely on a DHCP server to receive an IP address
before theycan work.
Note:
After you setup the internal DHCP server, do not connect any external DHCP servers to the
appliance or there may be address conflicts and cause connection issues.
Tip:
If you are only going to connect Avigilon cameras to the appliance, you do not need to set up a
DHCP server. For more information, see
