IP Address Configuration:
-
Obtain IP address via DHCP:
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a protocol
that lets network administrators centrally manage and automate the assignment of IP
addresses on a network. DHCP is enabled by default. Although a DHCP server is mostly
used to set an IP address dynamically, it is also possible to use it to set a static, known
IP address for a particular MAC address.
-
Use the following IP address:
To use a static IP address for the Network Camera,
check the radio button and then make the following settings:
*
IP address:
Specify a unique IP address for your Network Camera.
*
Subnet mask:
Specify the mask for the subnet the Network Camera is located on.
*
Default router:
Specify the IP address of the default router (gateway) used for connecting
devices attached to different networks and network segments.
• IPv6 Address Configuration
Check this box to enable IPv6. Other settings for IPv6 are configured in the network router.
• DNS Configuration
DNS (Domain Name Service) provides the translation of host names to IP addresses on your
network.
-
Obtain DNS Server via DHCP:
Automatically use the DNS server settings provided by
the DHCP server. Click the View button to see the current settings.

first part of a Fully Qualified Domain Name, for example, myserver is the host name in the
Fully Qualified Domain Name
myserver.mycompany.com
where mycompany.com is the
Domain name.
