Q How can I use a name instead of the IP address to connect Video Server?
A To allow users to connect to Video Server through an easily memorized name, the
administrators must first configure the name server in his network. Here is an example:

a name in the domain name service, then users can connect to Video Server by typing a
name instead of IP address. If there is DHCP service in the network, the IP address must
be excluded in the DHCP service to prevent from IP conflict.
Q What is the plug-in for?

Server is connected to the Internet and the function is enabled. Differences of several
hours may result from the time zone setting.
Q Why does the image not refresh regularly?
A In a modem environment, it is because the bandwidth of PPP connection is far less
than Ethernet. If the difference of the timestamp is not stable, adjust the UART FIFO
lower in both receiving and transmitting from modem property in the control panel.
While in Ethernet, it may be due to time taken in storing snapshots into memory upon
events occurring.
Q How many users are allowed to watch Video Server at the same time?
