Setting Up the Administrator Password and Network (System and Network)

1Address Setting Method

Select an address setting method from “Auto Setting (DHCP)” and “Manual Setting”. If you select “Auto Setting (DHCP)”, “IP Address”, “Subnet mask”, and “Default gateway address” are assigned by the DHCP automatically. If you select “Manual Setting”, enter these values which suit your environment.

2IP Address

Enter a fixed IP address.

3Subnet Mask

Enter a subnet mask assigned to each network.

4Default Gateway Address

Be sure to specify this address when the camera is connected to a subnet other than the subnet where the NC Viewer resides.

5Maximum Transmission Unit

Enter a maximum transmission unit size to be sent at one time. Normally, there is no need to change this setting from 1500.

If you are using ADSL, slightly lowering the value may increase the transmission efficiency. If you are using LAN, do not change the value from 1500.

Please consult with your network administrator for the IP address, subnet mask

Note and default gateway address settings.

Pay much attention to the IP address, subnet mask and default gateway address

settings. If any of the values is incorrect, network access becomes unavailable, and you may have to use the VB Initial Setup Tool (dStart Guide P.2-7) to

restore the default settings.

When using “Auto Setting (DHCP)” for the address setting, the IP address may not be correctly assigned if there is a router between DHCP server and VB-C300. In this case, assign a fixed IP address with “Manual Setting”.
