IPv4 and IPv6 Address Configuration
The AXIS 243Q Blade supports both IP version 4 and IP version 6. Both versions may be enabled simultaneously, and at least one version must always be enabled.
When using IPv4, the IP address can be set automatically via DHCP, or a static IP address can be set manually.
If IPv6 is enabled, your camera will receive an IP address according to the configuration in the network router.
There are also options for setting up notification of changes in the IP address, and for using the AXIS Internet Dynamic DNS Service. For more information on setting the IP address, please see the online help 
.
Notes: DHCP is a protocol for automatic IP address assignment on a network. IP address assignment via DHCP may lead to the situation where the IP address changes and you lose contact with the camera. Configure the options for notification of IP address change (under Services) to receive notification from the camera when the IP address changes.
Alternatively, if your DHCP server can update a DNS server, you can access the AXIS 243Q Blade by host name which is always the same, regardless of the IP address.
