4.2 Configure Your IP Camera Network Settings

Upon connecting with the network hardware, you need to activate the network function and configure the proper network settings of the IP Camera.

4.2.1 Enable DHCP Function

This function can only work if the LAN, which the unit is connected to, has a DHCP server. If the DHCP server is working, please move the dip switch points up to 3 on the flank panel; now the IP Camera will obtain an IP address automatically from the DHCP server. In that case, please skip section 4.2.2 (Set IP address) and follow section 4.3 (TCP/IP Communication Software).

4.2.2 Set IP Address

You need to set an IP address for the unit if the LAN unit isn’t connected to a DHCP server. Otherwise, please follow the instructions given below:

Set the IP, MASK and GATEWAY. The following is a sample setting.

IP:192.168.1.X

MASK:255.255.255.0

GATEWAY: 0.0.0.0

NOTE: When only one unit of the IP Camera is connected to a computer or LAN, you can freely assign an IP address for the IP Camera. For example, there is a range of IP Camera IP addresses from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.255. You can pick one for use from the range of the IP. It’s not necessary to set MASK and GATEWAY; leave the settings as default.

When an IP Camera is connected to a WAN, you must acquire a unique, permanent IP address and correctly configure the MASK and GATEWAY settings according to your network architecture. If you have any questions regarding those settings, please consult a qualified MIS professional or your ISP.
