AXIS 5400 User’s Manual

Section 3: Basic Installation

 

 

Using DHCP Follow the instructions below to download the IP address using DHCP:

1.Edit or create a scope in the DHCP manager of the DHCP daemon. The entries included in this scope should contain the following parameters:

range of IP addresses

subnet mask

default router IP address

WINS server IP address(es) or DDNS server IP address(es)

lease duration

2.Activate the scope.

The AXIS 5400 automatically downloads the DHCP parameters.

If you are using WINS or DDNS, you should include at least one WINS or DDNS server IP address in the DHCP scope. Immediately after the IP address has been received, the AXIS 5400 registers its host name and IP address on the WINS alternatively DDNS server. Refer to Registering and Resolving Host Names, on page 27 for more information.

The AXIS 5400 can automatically download a customized config file from a TFTP server. Just add the name of the config file and the TFTP server’s IP address to your DHCP scope. The config file is downloaded immediately after the AXIS 5400 receives its IP address.

Note: You do not have to restart the AXIS 5400 to download the IP address.
