MTU size
This value is set to 1500 (Ethernet) by default. Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) is the
maximum size (in bytes) of an IP packet that can be transmitted over the network without
dividing it into pieces. You can use the (default) values on the list or type a custom value. An MTU
size that you specify here must be supported on the other side of the link.
IP address
The factory-set IP address of the unit is in the 10.x.x.x range with a 255.0.0.0 subnet mask.
Achieving initial communication with the unit requires that the network adapter of the browsing
PC is set to the factory-default subnet of the unit. Having made the web interface accessible in
this way, you can use the Network page to change the default network settings to the desired
settings.
For IP address input to be valid, the IP address of the unit:
must be within the 10.0.0.1 ~ 223.255.255.254 range.
cannot start with 127 (reserved for loopback on local host).
Subnet mask
Used to subdivide the IP network for security or performance purposes.
Default gateway
The IP address of the network node (router) which serves as the entry point and exit point to the
network.
Preferred DNS
The IP address of the DNS server that will be used first for DNS name resolution.
Alternate DNS
The IP address of the server which will be used as the secondary DNS server.

Services
RTSP
The unit implements an RTSP server. A hardware or software decoder (the latter within a viewing
application, for example) is the RTSP client. Media sessions between client and server are
established and controlled with RTSP. Media stream delivery itself is handled by the Real-Time
Transport Protocol (RTP). Select the RTSP check box to enable RTSP streaming.
RTSP port
The port number used for RTSP media sessions. Default port: 554.
ONVIF
Enables the ONVIF service on the unit. The ONVIF specification ensures interoperability between
products regardless of manufacturer. It defines a common protocol for the exchange of
information between network video devices including automatic device discovery and video
streaming. The unit fully supports the ONVIF standard. It has been tested to support ONVIF
Profile S.
ONVIF Discovery
Makes the unit discoverable for ONVIF clients. Clear this check box if you prefer to disable
discovery. In that case, the unit can still be controlled from ONVIF clients that "know" of its
existence.
