Page 10 Express Video Servers
If you don’t have a serial port or using the Windows OS, there are a
few options.
If the video server is connected to a network with a DHCP server
and your computer is not running Windows, you can log into your router
(or whatever is acting as your DHCP server) and view the DHCP clients
table. The Express server will have a MAC address starting with 00:30:F4.
Take note of the IP address and enter it in your web browser. Click on the
configuration link, visit the network tab and assign the camera a manual IP
address (preferrably outside of the router’s DHCP range).
If the video server is connected to a network without a DHCP server
(IP addresses are not automatically assigned) and your computer is not
running Windows, you’ll have to manually assign the camera an IP address.
This requires terminal emulation software and the included null serial cable.
On a Macintosh or on a Windows computer without a serial port, you’ll
need a USB RS-232 adapter.
Before having to go down the path of manually assigning the IP address
via terminal software and a serial port, you may want review the earlier
section on Zeroconf.
To talk directly to the video server via the included null serial cable, set
your terminal software to a bitrate of 38,400 (8/N/1). Log in with username
admin , password admin and use the following commands to assign the
camera a temporary IP address. Once the IP has been assigned, browse to
the video server with a web browser and configure the Express server so it
has a permanent static IP address (see Chapter 3.8).
In the following example, the Express server is being assigned a
temporary IP address of 192.168.0.2 via a terminal program connected to
the S1 port on the back of the video server:
ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.2
route add -net 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 eth0
Once you can reach the video server via its temporary IP address, you’ll
want to immediately assign it a permanent static IP address in the network
configuration menu.
