(by default), where your DHCP server will

automatically assign dynamic IP to your device.

•

Static IP Address

if your ISP has already assigned an IP address to

you.

•

PPPoE connection

, where your camera is directly connected to the

Internet through a DSL modem.

* Input the DNS information if you have chosen and assigned a Static IP

Address for your camera.

Network Setup

Select this connection if you have a DHCP server running on your

network and would like a dynamic IP address to be updated to your

camera automatically.

You may obtain a static or fixed IP address and other network

information from your network administrator for your camera. A

static IP address will ease you for accessing your camera in the

future.

IP Address:

The fixed IP address

Subnet Mask:

The default value is “255.255.255.0.” Used to

determine if the destination is the same subnet.

Default Gateway:

The gateway used to forward frames to

destinations in a different subnet. Invalid gateway settings may

cause the failure of transmissions to a different subnet.

Primary DNS:

Primary domain name server that translates names to IP addresses.

Secondary DNS:

Secondary domain name server to backup the Primary DNS.

Static IP Client:

PPPoE Settings:

Port Settings:

UPnP Settings:

This section allows you to configure your network settings.

If you are using a PPPoE connection, enable it and enter the User Name and Password for your PPPoE account. You can get

this information from your Internet service provider (ISP).

You may configure a Second HTTP port that will allow you to connect to the camera via a standard web browser. The port can be

set to a number other than the default TCP ports 80. A corresponding port must be opened on the router. For example, if the port

is changed to 1010, users must type “http://192.168.0.100:1010” instead of only “http://192.168.0.100”.

Enable this setting to configure your camera as an UPnP device in the network.
