Assign an IP address

To make it accessible on the network, the AXIS 209FD/FD-R/FD-R M12/MFD/MFD-R/MFD- R M12 must be assigned an IP address.

Depending on the number of cameras you wish to install, the recommended method for assigning IP addresses in Windows is either AXIS IP Utility or AXIS Camera Management. Use the method that best suits your purpose.

Both of these free applications are available on the Axis Network Video Product CD supplied with this product, or they can be downloaded from www.axis.com/techsup

Notes:

If there is a DHCP server on your network the AXIS 209FD/FD-R/FD-R M12/MFD/MFD-R/MFD-R M12 will automatically receive a dynamic IP address, but this will not prevent manual setting of an alternative address.

The AXIS 209FD/FD-R/FD-R M12/MFD/MFD-R/MFD-R M12 has the default IP address 192.168.0.90

If assigning the IP address fails, check that there is no firewall blocking the operation.

For other methods of assigning or discovering the IP address, e.g. in other operating systems, see page 14.
